Ryanair online check in - unusual problem

Hi,

can anyone advise me / or been in same situation.

I booked return flights on Ryanair for my friend & I From Liverpool to Belfast so 1 reference number. Now plans have changed and he's going back as planned but I have booked another flight on same day at simalar time to Stanstead.

My problem is can I check in online for 2 flights at same time on same day on different routes or will there be a problem ? If we are both on one reference number can I just check him in and not me on the original flight ?

Maybe there is no problem but I want to make sure as I don't want any hassle/ extra costs on the day and I've seen some peoples horror stories....


any help would be appreciated...

Thanks Anne

    Hi
    There shouldn't be a problem, I've used Ryan air loads of times and when there are a few of us going (normally 8 of us on a day off work) we all tend to check in separately but with the same reference code. We do it this way purely because we just meet at the airport and no one is waiting around with tickets.

    Thanks Diane,

    did you check in online ?

    when you read the Ryanair website info it seems to say all people on one reservation will be affected by any change. What happens if only one person checks in online ?

    regards Anne

    Here's a tip: i flew to London for the day yesterday and used my driving licence as ID. Got through Belfast no problem. Realised on the flight that if you check in online they only accept a passport as ID, it says this on the boarding card.

    They weren't going to let me travel back from STN with my licence! In the end i showed my mornings boarding card to the supervisor and they eventually let me on. Even though the website says that both are accepted as ID.

    Hi Anne

    Yes I did check in on line.

    I've have also just checked myself in on line when my husband has forgotten to book time off work and my reservation wasn't affected.(He was on my reservation code)

    Regards
    Diane
