What is the Ryanair family Plus deal?

Family Plus
Taking children into account, there are free seats for passengers under 12 years old, so everyone sits together with discounted standard seats. The fare also includes a small cabin bag per passenger each way, and a 10 kg check-in bag per passenger each way.



Of course. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the Ryanair Family Plus deal, including what it is, what it includes, and important things to know.

In a Nutshell

The Ryanair Family Plus deal is a discounted bundle designed for families or groups traveling with at least one child (under 12). It offers a 20% discount on the total booking cost (flights and bags) for everyone on the same reservation.


Key Features & What’s Included

  1. 20% Discount: The core benefit. It applies to the total cost of flights and any added extras (like checked bags, priority boarding, etc.) for every passenger on the booking.
  2. Free Reserved Seating for Children: All children (aged 2-11) on the booking get a free standard reserved seat. This guarantees they will be seated next to at least one accompanying adult in your group.
  3. Two Free Cabin Bags: The deal includes two small cabin bags (40x20x25 cm) that can be brought onboard. This is useful for essentials.
  4. Priority Boarding for All: Everyone on the booking gets Priority Boarding 2. This allows you to board after “Priority Boarding 1” passengers but before general boarding, making it easier to find overhead bin space and settle young children.
  5. One Free Checked Bag (20kg): The bundle includes one 20kg checked bag to be shared among the group on the outbound flight only. (This is a common point of confusion).

What about Ryanair? Ryanair has a slightly different system. They do guarantee children that under 12 will be seated with 1 adult in their booking party but that adult must pay £4 to reserve a seat and the children are then automatically given seats next to them for no extra charge.

A maximum of four children for every one adult on the same booking will receive a reserved seat free of charge. This ensures parents of young children sit together during the flight. This will also allow you to check-in for your flight 60 days before departure.

How strict are they on this sizing? Incredibly. In my experience, they're very strict. Every time I've flown with them, they have a measuring guide and the bag has to easily fit in it - you have to slide it in with ease, you can't jam it in there.
