I will add a cautionary note if I may? We checked in 6 hours before departure in January and got a Seat Allocated at Gate message and a printed boarding pass with that note. we were sequence 186 and 187 to check in. I noted that Ryanair say they don't overbook....We nonetheless has a worrying few hours. Once at the gate we approached gate agent immediately and had a penciled seat number added to our bp's and we flew ok. The flight was full. Did they overbook?
