Ryanair to increase size of underseat 'free bag' following EU rule changes
Briefly

Ryanair will increase its underseat bag allowance by 20% in response to EU rule changes, raising the size from 40x25x20cm to 40x30x20cm. This adjustment allows for a volume increase from 20 litres to 24 litres, benefiting travelers, although it remains smaller than easyJet's allowance of 45x36x20cm. Implementation of the change will occur over the coming weeks as airport bag sizers are updated. The new EU rules, currently pending parliamentary approval, suggest a minimum baggage size of 40x30x15cm without additional fees, affecting both EU and UK passengers.
