                 BAGGAGE CHARGES RISE TO REDUCE CHECKED IN BAGS


Ryanair, Europe's largest low fares airline, today (Monday, 28th April 2008)
announced that it will continue its drive to increase the number of passengers
checking in on-line by increasing baggage and airport check-in charges from May
5. From this date Ryanair's checked in baggage fee will rise from €9 to €10
while airport check-in fees will increase from €4 to €5. Ryanair encourages
passengers to avoid these charges altogether by travelling with our 10kg hand
luggage allowance and checking in on-line.

Passengers who book their flights in the next week (before May 5) will avoid
these charges.


Announcing these charge increases, Ryanair's Peter Sherrard said:

'40% of Ryanair passengers currently avoid queues at both check-in and boarding
by availing of our free web check-in service, and this increase in baggage fees
will result in fewer checked in bags and more passengers changing to on-line
check-in.

'On-line check-in is faster, more efficient and costs Ryanair less. There is no
doubt that it is the future for air travel. We will continue to increase baggage
fees until half of our passengers check-in online, which will allow us to reduce
check-in and handling costs and pass on these savings to our passengers in the
form of Europe's guaranteed lowest fares.

'Ryanair will continue to drive down the cost of travel by reducing its average
fare (which includes baggage and check-in revenues) in 2008 and guaranteeing the
lowest fares on every route'.
