In the coming weeks, Ryanair will be completely eliminating paper boarding passes and airport check-in. Is this a radical change, or is Ryanair just ahead of its time?
Well, this wasn’t just talk, as it’s really happening — as of Wednesday, November 12, 2025, Ryanair will transition to 100% digital boarding passes. Not only won’t it be possible to get a boarding pass at the airport, but you actually won’t even be able to print a boarding pass at home.
Instead, the only way to get a boarding pass will be to generate a digital one through the “myRyanair” app. Of course as before, it’ll be possible to check-in bags at the airport, but that’s a different function than getting checked in.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
