Budget airline Ryanair has told passengers they “do not look cool” wearing sunglasses on board in a cheeky social media post which sparked lively reactions from British holidaymakers
Ryanair, which flies from Birmingham, is a go-to for British holidaymakers and tourists each and every summer.
Ryanair has issued a “please note” as it urges passengers to cease wearing a particular item while on board.
Ryanair, which operates from several UK airports including Belfast, Birmingham and Manchester, is a favourite amongst British holidaymakers and tourists throughout the summer season. With Easter now passed and attention shifting to the middle months of the year, the budget carrier has issued an important update for its passengers. It stated: “Please note: Passengers do not look cool wearing sunglasses on board.”
Ryanair competes with Jet2, Easyjet and TUI, alongside the likes of British Airways, Wizz Air, Lufthansa and other budget and mid-range domestic and international operators, Birmingham Live reports.
Reacting to the warning, one holidaymaker commented: “I have never understand why airlines don’t first board a plane, from the seats in the back. It will be a lot quicker boarding.”

Another holidaymaker posted online: “No mess with handluggage etc. Why would anyone sit in the plane longer than necessary? Because you have ‘priority boarding.'”
Another stated: “The biggest blight on most flights is “Carry on Luggage”. It slows down the whole boarding process as well as the exit procedure. Passengers at the front half of the aircraft having to put their luggage in the back half of the aircraft causing chaos when landing. Especially as the numpties who insist on standing immediately on touch down, and block the route to your bag.”
One amused commenter laughed: “It’ll come as a blow to Tom Cruise – I guess he’ll be cancelling all his Ryanair bookings then,” referring to Ryanair’s post featuring a snap of the Hollywood star sporting sunglasses as Maverick in Top Gun.
“Gotta shield our eyes from that highlighter-yellow cabin,” another holidaymaker quipped on social media.
“Looking at Ryanair surroundings requires a filter I’m afraid,” a further passenger chuckled in response to the Facebook post.
Another weighed in with: “If it’s good enough for the driver, it’s good enough for the passengers.
“You dont look cool wearing them in youre house either…..,” came yet another response.
It comes after we published a list of items Ryanair has now banned tourists from packing in their suitcases and carry-on luggage. These include guns, firearms and other devices that discharge projectiles. Devices capable of, or appearing capable of, causing serious injury by discharging a projectile are also on the list.
