Ryanair Hand Luggage Checks: Between Efficiency and Frustration at Palma Airport

Answer

What should I do if my cabin bag does not meet Ryanair rules?

If your bag is too large, repack it before reaching the gate or book the larger baggage option if available. Once boarding begins, there is usually little time to fix the problem, and that can cause delays and stress. In Mallorca, it helps to check your bag at home so you are not dealing with it under pressure at Palma Airport.
