There will be a 20-minute change to check-in and bag-drop rules.
A major change to check-in and bag-drop rules will come into force next week for Ryanair passengers travelling from Birmingham Airport.
The airline's airport check-in and bag-drop facilities will close 60 minutes before a flight's scheduled departure time, from November 10.
The cut-off is currently 40 minutes before departure.
The new rule applies across Ryanair's network, which will include flights operating from Birmingham Airport.
Ryanair says the change is intended to give passengers more time to get through airport security and passport queues and reach their departure gates before boarding.
