Check your bag against Ryanair

Before you fly with Ryanair

Official identity and baggage sources revalidated 1 August 2026. Personal, Priority Cabin, 20 kg Checked and 23 kg Checked rules are approved and publishable. Non-Priority Cabin remains a deliberate zero-entitlement block; 10 kg Checked remains unpublished pending official fixed dimensions.

Your Ryanair allowance varies by fare or purchased option. Match the checker selection to your booking.

Airline staff may require the bag to fit completely inside a rigid airport sizer.

Ryanair baggage allowance summary

Use this quick guide to compare your bag against Ryanair's published cabin bag and personal item limits. The WillitFit checker is designed to help travellers spot oversize bags before they reach the gate.

Cabin bag size: 55 × 40 × 20 cm; Weight limit: 10 kg
Personal item size: 40 × 30 × 20 cm; Usually stored under the seat in front.

Before you pack

Measure the packed bag, not the empty manufacturer size. Bulging pockets, handles and wheels can affect whether the bag fits the sizer.

At the airport

Keep documents, liquids and electronics easy to reach so you do not need to open and repack your bag during security or boarding.

If your bag is close

A close result means there may be little tolerance. Use the checker, reduce soft contents where possible, and confirm the latest rules with the airline.
