Ryanair removes flight change fee for all new September bookings

Ryanair has extended the removal of its flight change fee to all new September bookings.

The airline announced it will extend the waiving of its flight change fee for all customers who book to travel in Sept.

The airline has already waived the flight change fee for new July and August bookings – allowing customers to book their extended summer holidays with peace of mind in case their travel plans change.

From 17 July, customers who book to travel in Sept will be able to move their flights with zero change fee to travel until the 31 Dec 2020.

Ryanair’s Director of Marketing & Digital, Dara Brady said: “In order to provide as much flexibility and confidence as possible for our customers this summer, we have extended the waiving of our flight change fee to new Sept bookings.

"As the holiday season will be prolonged this year, customers can now plan a well-deserved break knowing that flights in July, August and now Sept can be moved without any flight change fee if their travel plans change”.

Earlier this month the carrier announced it will fly to 24 new holiday destinations from the UK this summer.

The carrier is restoring almost 90% of its route network but frequencies will be lower than normal, with just 40% of its normal July capacity.

Passengers will have to wear face masks or face coverings as part of enhanced safety and hygiene measures.

Ryanair Group’s chief executive Michael O’Leary said: “We expect in July to carry more than 4.5 million customers, many of them families taking well earned Mediterranean holidays after the severe challenges of the Covid-19 lockdown, home schooling, etc.

“These 1,000 daily flights mark an important turning point for Ryanair and for the tourism industry of Europe, which supports so many jobs and small businesses.”

Last week the government released a list of 73 countries holidaymakers from England can visit with no mandatory quarantine upon their return - including Spain, Italy, France and Malta.
