Before you buy

• Always confirm current terms directly with Ryanair before you book.

Full policy notes

Ryanair's terms name surfboards and bodyboards as sporting equipment carried in the hold for a fee, outside your checked-bag allowance. The fee covers 20 kg per item; anything heavier is charged per kilo at the excess-baggage rate (no maximum weight is published for boards). Its fee table has two sports tiers — 'Sports equipment' (€40 at booking / €45 later) and 'Large sports item' (€60 / €70) — and does not say which one a surfboard falls into; the booking flow decides. No length limit is published.

Watch out for

• Watch out · Airline policy: Only 20 kg is included per sports item (most airlines include 23–32 kg). Every kilo over that is charged at the excess-baggage rate, so weigh a multi-board bag before you fly.
