Ryanair along with other Stansted based airlines has been forced to accept BAA Stansted's instruction to cancel further flights this weekend. Consequently, 20% of our Stansted flights have been cancelled on Saturday and Sunday to accommodate BAA Stansted (** see below for list of cancelled flights). No other UK airport has asked or required Ryanair to cancel any flights to accommodate these new security requirements. We have advised BAA Stansted that our full flight schedule will be operating from Monday 14th August onwards, as it is not unreasonable to expect that BAA Stansted should meet its security obligations to all passengers 5 days after the events of the Thursday 10th August.

Ryanair strongly advise passengers that until the security restrictions on hand baggage are lifted to bring one bag only per person. Check-in desks at our UK base airports (Stansted, Luton, East Midlands, Liverpool Glasgow Prestwick) will open 3 hours prior to the scheduled flight departure time and close promptly 40 minutes prior. Due to the additional security procedures we ask customers to check in as early as possible to allow sufficient time to check in and to clear security. Flights cannot wait for passengers delayed at security points.
