Ryanair Flight

Hi.

Last year we booked to go to Berlin for a few nights, flying with Ryanair. Germany have obviously now imposed quarantine and the FCDO travel advice is against all but essential travel. 

Where do we stand with our Ryanair flights? The online portal says we can check in but surely they aren’t flying now? Can we get a refund?

Any advice appreciated!

  • If the flight flys then you have no right to a refund. You will likely be able to change dates for free with Ryanair’s flight change fee waiver if you do it 7 days before your flight.

    Either that or wait and see if they do cancel.
    Remember it’s not just British people who fly with Ryanair to Germany so just because you have to quarantine it doesn’t mean everyone else on the flight does.

    Why wouldn't they be flying? 
    People still need to travel for work, business, to maintain properties and care for family etc. 

    You're not entitled to a refund, but Ryanair should let you change the dates.
