RyanAir Boarding Passes paper size

[billvinhage]

Is it neceeary to print the RyanAir boarding pass on A4 paper as the website states, or is 8.5"x11" close enough. Based on the various forum posts on RyanAir I'm thinking yes........but was curious if anyone had some insight on this. I'm sure I can get some A4 paper somewhere....just hopign to find it in a small quantity as it is not the norm here in the US.

Shouild probably be ok as they just tear the bottom off anyway, they don't scan it or anything.

Errrr. I think they do scan it, certainly at Stansted...... but I'm sure your size printout will be OK, as long as all the details are shown.
Last year I showed my boarding pass at the gate where it was scanned, and for some reason didn't register. So, I queued for a replacement, which went through OK. No charge, though the clerk did jokingly say, "That'll be £25-00"......

Sorry I stand corrected. What I meant to say is they don't put the whole document through a feed mechanism.

Based on the numerous posts about RyanAir's attention to detail in enforcing their policies, in abundance of caution, I've gotten a reem of A4 paper just to be certain........now I have a lifetime supply! LOL!!
