GHfaeGTA Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 flipping hell. Some of the advice here is flipping awful. The UK and Ireland share a common travel zone so that you don't need your passport to pass between the 2 countries. If you are travelling to Ireland with Ryanair their policy (that you agreed to when booking your ticket) says you must use your passport as ID. Other airlines should accept other photo ID. If you're crossing into Ireland from the North there's zero chance you'll have to show anything to anyone. I'd also like to point out my earlier pedantry was excellent. Flybe accept driving licence so no passport. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 No it's not. As said by others, if Ryanair it is the case..... I am Air Lingus and just assumed it's the same (given its effectively the same company now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaggisNeepsNTatties Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 If they have , they would be advised to update their terms and conditions on their webpage Im flying to London from Dublin this Friday for the weekend , albeit not with Ryanair ....but will check it out at the airport and let ye know It is up to date, nowhere on the link you put up does it mention Ireland/UK on the list of countries where national ID cards are accepted.

Flure Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) " The Common Travel Area means that there are no passport controls in operation for Irish and UK citizens travelling between the two countries. Since 1997, some controls are in effect on arrivals in Ireland from the UK but this does not mean that you are required to carry your Irish or UK passport with you when you travel between the countries. You must, however, carry an acceptable form of photo-identification, examples of which are listed below. When you arrive in Ireland, you may sometimes be asked for valid official photo-identification which shows your nationality. As you are being asked to prove that you are an Irish or UK citizen who is entitled to avail of the Common Travel Area arrangements, it would be advisable to travel with your passport. A valid passport A driver's licence with photo An international student card A national ID card A bus pass with photo A Garda ID with photo A work ID with photo" http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/moving_country/moving_abroad/freedom_of_movement_within_the_eu/common_travel_area_between_ireland_and_the_uk.html Remember all the keech during the referendum about needing a passport to travel to Carlisle?

Charlie Endell Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) I'm flying Aer Lingus who will accept other forms of ID - I'll just use my driving licence (although being a belt 'n'' braces person I may take my passport as well). For reasons best known to themselves Ryanair will only accept passports. Edited March 18, 2015 by Charlie Endell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For reasons best known to themselves Ryanair will only accept passports. The official line used to be: "consistency over their entire network". Not sure if that's still the case though as I've not used them recently (big in O&G). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolhibby Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 OK Here it is. And I'm assuming everyone on here is a UK national (as we don't have ID Cards). If driving from the North or taking a ferry, no passport required. If flying (using anyone other than Ryanair), passport not required. (Disclaimer - please check individual airlines terms and conditions). If flying using Ryanair, Passport Required. I'm flying Ryanair, I shall be taking my passport. Jobs a good'un. No idea why you wouldn't take your passport TBH, better safe than sorry. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So sorry your honor.... just assumed that Aer Lingus was the same, given our boss got knocked back from a Ryanair flight to Dublin a few weeks ago when he was heading out for a important meeting with Bam Nuttall in Kill, because he just assumed his driving license was enough to get him on a Ryanair flight to Dublin.

Green_Tide_Rising Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) Is it just not easier to take your passport ? It would be easier to take it mate......but if we applied that logic then we couldnt have this fascinating passport debate Spoke to a few mates in work this morning ----- they all have said Ryanair HAVE BECOME MORE STRICT on passports in the last year. A National ID card will do .......BUT i dont think ye guys get issued them across the water? To be safe and to avoid any potential dissappointment folks....... TAKE YOUR PASSPORT! cheers!
