Pls help with Ryanair booking!

It's making me feel so stupid, and I despise them for making me feel like this!

Flew out a couple of days ago, paid for priority boarding/luggage handling etc, only to get to the airport and have to pay £40 extra for something or other. Standard shitty Ryanair.

Anyway, just checking in online for the return flights and I want to add a 10kg bag to check in for myself and my friend, but I'm only being offered a 25kg bag each for £25. Why cant I add a 10kg again like I did on the way out?

Why do Ryanair just fucking rinse you at every turn?! BASTARDS

Any advice? Have been all through the app and the website but cant see a solution :-(

What did you pay 40.00 for? Was it that your bag was too big for the sizer. If you've paid for priority boarding you are allowed a bag of a certain size a small bag again of a certain size plus a bag of airport purchases. I don't think you can add the 10kg bag as well as priority boarding it has to be hold luggage which is 25.00 or similar

Maybe you already have priority booked so you can't see the option?

I have a Ryanair flight booked and if I go to the 'add 10 kg hold bag' it says that this option is not available to people who have priority booked.

Is your bag within the 55 x 40 x 20 cm and 10 kg limit? Did you print your boarding pass or have it available on your phone?

A £40 charge sounds like the fee if your bag was too big or too heavy or you didn't have a boarding pass.

As for 'stupid shitty Ryanair' they're absolutely fine as long as you read and follow their rules, which are clearly stated as are their fees for when you don't. And they're usually much cheaper than other airlines.

It's probably because they have sold out of the priority seats. You can book them for up to 2 months but they sell out on full flights.

I found this out to my cost last month.

We squashed everything in to a small enough bag in the end and got free check in but if you're already away you might not manage that.
