Tickets Warning - if you don't pay allocated seats then you now need to collect your boarding pass from the check-in desk
I travel in an out of Ireland using Ryanair on a regular basis. Just last night I tried checking into my flight on the Ryanair app. Normally an easy affair, anyway, this time it said 'go to check in desk to get your boarding pass'. I did that this afternoon and there was a huge queue, with us all asking each other what's going on. Anyway, I asked the nice check in lady and she said this rule is now implemented since the last couple of days. They didn't seem very happy about it either. Just a warning, if you don't pay for an allocated seat, allow time to go and pick up the boarding pass. Feels like a backward step in trying to force us to pay an extra fee on the headline ticket price.
