Actually, not quite. from http://www.ryanair.com/site/EN/conditions.php?pos=MYFLIGHT > For British and Irish citizens who are travelling on > flights to/from the United Kingdom to/from the Republic of Ireland (Common > Travel Area), > a valid driving licence with photo is acceptable photo ID. > > Passengers who are citizens of other countries travelling on these routes > must present a valid passport > (with visa if applicable) or a National Identity Card issued by the > government of a European Economic Area (EEA) country. .. although it's vague that a driving licence is good enough for their online check-in facility.. so they'll probably sting you for a check-in charge. If travelling with Ryanair, don't check in more than 15kg of hold luggage, or they'll really sting you in excess baggage charges. -- Simon Hewison _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
