What is the maximum liquid carry on Ryanair?

Ryanair allows passengers to pack toiletries and make up into their hand luggage provided all liquids are in containers of no more than 100 ml. In addition, all liquids must be within one transparent, re-sealable plastic bag with dimensions of no more than 20 cm x 20 cm.



As of 2026, the maximum liquid allowance for Ryanair depends on the specific airport's security technology. At modern hubs equipped with Next-Generation C3 scanners (like London City, Shannon, and parts of Dublin), the restrictive 100ml rule has been abolished; passengers can carry up to 2 liters of liquids and gels, and these no longer need to be removed from bags or placed in plastic pouches. However, many airports across Europe and the UK still utilize older technology. At these "standard" airports, the legacy rule applies: each liquid container must be 100ml or less, and all items must fit into a single, transparent, resealable 1-liter plastic bag (approx. 20cm x 20cm). Because Ryanair serves such a vast network of smaller regional airports, travelers are strongly advised to assume the 100ml rule is still in effect for their entire journey to avoid having expensive toiletries confiscated during a return flight from an airport that hasn't yet upgraded its scanning hardware.
