New Ryanair Rule: Drop Off Checked Luggage Earlier — Who Will the Clock Become a Problem For?

Answer

How early do I need to drop off checked luggage with Ryanair at Palma Airport?

From 10 November 2026, Ryanair passengers with checked baggage need to hand it in no later than 60 minutes before departure. The change applies at Palma Airport as well as across the airline’s network. If you are travelling from Mallorca, it is sensible to allow extra time for queues, transfers and finding the right counter or self-service machine.
