Delayed baggage · FR

A Ryanair PIR is the start, not the claim.

Preserve the ten-character PIR reference, then organise the separate documented baggage claim.

First route

Report the bag.

This creates the tracing record. It does not usually replace the later documented claim.

01

Report delayed checked baggage at the arrival airport.

02

Obtain and retain the PIR with its ten-character file reference.

03

Use the reference to track the bag.

Second route

Build the claim record.

RecoupLane organises what you confirm. The airline applies its own assessment.

01

Open a separate baggage claim; the PIR alone is not a claim.

02

Attach the evidence requested by the current official flow.

03

Submit through Ryanair and retain the resulting correspondence.
