According to a report by the Independent, Ryanair’s current free “personal bag” size is 40 x 25 x 20cm – a volume of 20 litres.

Now, following the previously announced agreement among European airlines to adopt a new minimum size for cabin luggage, Ryanair will increase one dimension of the bag size from 25 to 30cm. The dimensions will soon be 40 x 30 x 20cm – a volume of 24 litres.

A spokesperson for Ryanair said: “This change will be implemented over the coming weeks, as our airport bag sizers are adjusted.”
