Ryanair drops its £8 fee for parents to sit next to their young children
Ryanair will stop charging parents £8 each way to guarantee a seat beside their young children.
Ryanair had been charging parents £8 each way to sit next to their young children. The budget airline has now announced it will end the fee.
The decision was framed as reluctant, with the carrier stopping short of treating the change as a consumer win. Families who previously paid to avoid cabin separation will now be seated together at no extra cost.
Why it mattersFamilies flying Ryanair save up to £16 per return trip and no longer face the choice of paying a fee or being split across the cabin.
