Book Another TripBecause most airlines let you book trips 11 months in advance, and because you can book travel that will occur after a voucher's expiration date, the lack of change fees means you can rebook trips long after credits will expire.
If your booked flight operated and you decided not to travel, we cannot offer you a refund as the seat you booked operated empty in your absence. Covid-19 travel vouchers can be exchanged for cash at any time.
What's the law? The U.S. Department of Transportation (DoT) is clear on the issue of refunds: if your flight is canceled by the airline and you choose not to travel, you are entitled to a refund. That means the dollar amount you paid, not a voucher for the equivalent to use with the airline.
However, if the delay is caused by technical problems or a strike by airline staff, you are likely to be owed compensation under Regulation (EC) No. 261/2004. In addition, you generally have up to 3 years to file a Ryanair flight delay compensation claim.
When you are buying a Ryanair gift card for someone else, bear in mind that they are non-refundable. If you have been given one as a present, it will expire after 12 months from the original purchase. This date can't be extended. If the voucher has your name on it, you can't change this to another person.
If you've got a handful of credits or vouchers, don't worry: Most airlines easily allow you to apply up to three or more toward one transaction. Just keep in mind you can generally only use these travel credits for yourself, not someone else.
