Book Ryanair Flights With 50% Deposit On Family Fares
Secure your 2027 family holiday now. Book Ryanair flights with 50% deposit, and pay the balance 40 days before departure.
If you are anything like me, you will come back from one holiday and immediately start thinking about how to get away again! I spend hours looking up Aer Lingus and Ryanair flights looking for the best deals. We have to have something to look forward to, right?
We know that prices always increase during the peak summer months, and with all the talk of airfares on the rise, now is probably the best time to secure your summer holiday.
Fortunately Ryanair have made booking flights for next year a little easier for families – you can now book Ryanair flights with Family Plus and pay just 50% deposit, and pay the balance 40 days before your departure date.
How to pay a deposit with Ryanair flights?
You simply book Ryanair flights in the usual way, but you must select the Family Plus fare. The family plus fare includes the following:
- One small bag per person that fits under the seat – 40cm x 20cm x 25cm
- 1 x 20kg checked in bag per family
- 10kg checked-in bag for all passengers
- Free seats for kids under 12 – max 4 kids per booking
You then select the ‘Pay 50% Deposit’ option. To be able to use this option, your travel needs to be booked at least 45 days pre-departure.
How to pay the balance of your Ryanair flights
You must pay the balance of your flights no later than 40 days before departure. You should get an email reminder but I suggest taking note of the date just incase you don’t receive the email. Simply log into your Ryanair account, retrieve your booking and select the upcoming trip to be paid. If the balance is not paid at least 40 days pre-departure, your booking will be automatically cancelled.
The best part – there is no additional charge for choosing this form of payment, and if you don’t pay the remainder, your deposit will be refunded into your Ryanair wallet as a credit. Credit cannot be exchanged for cash and must be used within 12 months of the issued date.
Family Instalment Payment will not be available where any third-party services (such as accommodation, events, activities, airport transfer, airport parking, car hire or travel insurance) are included on a booking (airport fast track services excluded).
