Ryanair has announced that passengers will see a change in how they board, starting from next week. Announced on Ryanair's Corporate Website , the airline has said it will transition to 100% digital boarding passes . From November 12, which falls on a Wednesday, it has been confirmed that travellers flying with the airline will no longer be able to download or print paper boarding passes. Instead, they will be required to use the digital boarding pass available in the “myRyanair” app during check-in to board their flight . Many people already use a digital pass for travel with Europe's leading airline noting that the transition is "already adopted by nearly 80% of Ryanair’s 207M+ annual passengers." Ryanair's Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) confirmed the change and said it would deliver a better and more streamlined experience. Dara Brady, CMO, reminded passengers: “We are now just a little less than a week out from our move to 100% digital boarding passes, meaning that from Wednesday, 12 November, passengers will no longer be able to download and print a physical paper boarding pass but will instead need to use the digital boarding pass generated in their “myRyanair” app during check-in to board their Ryanair flight. "While over 80% of passengers already use digital boarding passes, and therefore won’t be affected by this progressive change, we remind the small number of passengers who still print boarding passes to download the myRyanair app ahead of the move to 100% digital boarding passes from Wednesday, 12 November." He added: "Moving fully digital means a faster, smarter, and greener experience for passengers, whilst also providing easier access to a range of innovative in-app features."
