Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary announced an increase in the bonus for staff identifying passengers with oversized cabin bags from €1.50 to €2.50 per bag, effective in November. The airline enforces a size limit of 40cm x 20cm x 25cm and weight of 10kg for carry-on bags, with penalties up to £75 for noncompliance. O'Leary emphasized the importance of following rules to avoid delays, asserting that most passengers comply, and voiced plans to incentivize staff to enforce regulations.
