How do I retrieve a booking with Ryanair?

Open the app and select the 'My Trips' option on the home page. Tap on the 'Email Address' option on the top of the next page. Here, you'll need to enter your reservation number and allocated email address, which can be found on your booking confirmation document.



To retrieve a booking with Ryanair in 2026, the most direct method is to use the "My Bookings" section on their official website or mobile app. You generally need two pieces of information: your 6-character Booking Reference (a mix of letters and numbers found in your confirmation email) and the email address used to make the purchase. If you cannot find your confirmation email, you can use the "Find my booking" tool by entering the last four digits of the payment card used and the flight date. If you booked through a Third-Party Travel Agent (OTA), Ryanair's "Customer Verification" process is now mandatory; you may need to complete a quick biometric "Express Verification" (using your phone's camera) to prove your identity before you can manage the booking or check in. This policy was strengthened in 2025 to ensure passengers receive safety and security updates directly from the airline. Once retrieved, you can add baggage, select seats, or download your digital boarding pass—just remember that check-in usually closes 2 hours before the scheduled departure.
