Can you take electrical items in hand luggage on Ryanair?

8.4. 3 You can take up to 15 electronic devices, and up to 20 lithium batteries, onto the plane with you. 8.4. 4 You must not have any of the items listed in 8.9 (Prohibited items) in carry-on baggage you take into the plane.



In 2026, Ryanair allows you to carry up to 15 personal electronic devices (PEDs) in your carry-on luggage. This includes smartphones, laptops, tablets, and cameras. However, there are strict rules regarding lithium batteries: each battery or power bank must not exceed a capacity of 100Wh (Watt-hours). If the capacity isn't clearly marked on the device, security may confiscate it. Furthermore, "Smart Bags" with integrated power banks are only permitted in the cabin if the battery is removable; if the battery is fixed and above 2.7Wh, the bag is completely banned from both the cabin and the hold. For 2026 travelers, a major convenience is that many newer security scanners (like those at Dublin Airport) no longer require you to remove your laptop or tablets from your bag, though you should still check the specific rules of your departure airport.
