Ryanair Prime: Is It Really Worth the £79?
Deciding whether to invest in Ryanair Prime requires careful consideration of your travel patterns and preferences. Our calculator tool can help you make an informed decision based on your specific situation.
Ryanair Prime is designed primarily for loyal Ryanair customers who fly frequently, regularly choose seat selection, and don't already have comprehensive travel insurance. Occasional travellers or those who rarely select seats may not receive sufficient value to justify the £79 annual fee.
However, the service has limitations that our Ryanair Prime checker takes into account:
- Seat selection is restricted to designated rows, usually not including premium positions
- The travel insurance only covers Ryanair flights and has age restrictions
- Prime companion rules are complex and may require separate bookings
- The value of exclusive sales depends on your flexibility to travel on specific dates
Our Ryanair Prime calculator takes these factors into consideration, giving you a personalised assessment of whether the subscription represents good value for your specific travel needs.
For a more detailed analysis and comparison with other airline membership programmes such as EasyJet Plus, read our Is Ryanair Prime Worth It? blog article.
Updated Information Alert: As Ryanair Prime is a relatively new service, the benefits, terms, and conditions may evolve over time. We recommend checking the latest information directly on Ryanair's official website before making your decision, as our calculator is based on the offering as it was at launch.
About Ryanair Prime
Ryanair Prime is a subscription service that costs £79 per year and offers:
- Free seat selection on up to 12 flights per year (limited to designated rows)
- Annual travel insurance included (with age restrictions and limitations)
- Access to exclusive sales (12 per year with minimum £10 savings per flight)
- Limited to 250,000 members
Ryanair claims the service can save passengers up to £420 per year if they take 12 flights, and around £105 for those who take just three flights annually. The actual value will depend on your travel habits, seat preferences, and whether you already have travel insurance.
Important note: Prime benefits only apply to flights booked and flown within your membership period. If your membership expires before your flight date, you won't receive Prime benefits even if you booked while your membership was active. We strongly advise reading the full terms and conditions before subscribing.
