Ryanair has announced a further delay to its move to 100% paperless boarding passes.
The airline said the change will now take effect from Wednesday November 12, instead of November 3 – to avoid the busy mid-term break.
The move will mean passengers will no longer be able to download and print a physical paper boarding pass but instead will have to use a digital boarding pass generated in the myRyanair app.
Ryanair said almost 80% of its more than 206 million passengers already use its digital boarding pass – which means around 40 million do not.
Dara Brady, Ryanair’s CMO, said that to ensure a seamless transition to 100% digital boarding passes for its customers, the airline will make the switch from November 12, which is traditionally a slightly quieter time for travel following the busy mid-term break period.
“Ryanair’s move to 100% digital boarding passes will mean a faster, smarter, and greener travel experience for our customers,” he added.
