Bari BRI to Rome Fiumicino FCO Ryanair On Time Peformance - Is this doable?
My flight plan (Return Ticket by Ryanair) will be
- 29 March - FCO to BRI (I will leave my luggage at FCO Luggage Storage open from 6:30am to 11:30pm)
- 30 March BRI to FCO 18:40 to 19:45
As Luggage Counter closes at 11:30pm & my flight lands at 7:45pm, I will have total 3:45 hours to clear/pass the disembarking from plane walk/find & fetch luggage. From then on, I have a FCO-AMS KLM flight next day @ 3:30am 31 March.
Will I have enough time to get off from BRI-FCO Ryanair flight @ FCO Airport & fetch luggage from its Luggage Storage section? Does Ryanair have history of on-time arrivals?
Other details, if matter:
- Visa- Schengen Type C Multi, Nationality Indian
- I will leave Luggage at FCO because trip to BRI is a quick one, & Ryanair will charge this as this is 10+ Kg).
- Current KLM Route : DEL-AMS-FCO, FCO-AMS-DEL
Edit: Also, I am carrying my camera bag as carry-on, it is less than 10KG, but I have heard that if the Cabin fills up quickly, they ask the remaining passengers to check-in their carry-on luggage without any cost, at gate. As I will be carrying camera & lenses, can I refuse to accept their offer? On KLM flights, it usually fits under the seat.

Ryanair's punctuality is good - they claim the best of any European airline, with ~90%, although there is some dispute about the breadth of data used for the claim. My personal experience is that their is a degree of "padding" in Ryanair schedules, to allow for that broadly on tme claim. I've been on a Ryanair flight that proudly announced arriving considerably early - however as I left the gate, I noticed that the next flight from the gate (also Ryanair) was scheduled to depart at what had been our scheduled landing time.
That said, flights can always be delayed or cancelled for a variety of reasons. If you need to be at AMS for the 31 March, you'd be advised to plan to ensure it is possible. Trains are always a viable option as you say.

Answer 2
Concerning your question about the camera bag: if it fits under the seat, then you can always argue with the gate agents that you will put it there. Usually they only mark large suitcases to be checked in instead of carry-on. Boarding early also reduces the probability of such a procedure.
Instead please not that if your flight from BRI to FCO is delayed considerably you will not only be unable to pick up your luggage but might even miss your FCO to AMS flight. That is a risk I would try to avoid. Could you travel a day earlier instead?
And as for you true question: if the flight is on time you have plenty of time to pick up your luggage but in case it is not you are in some trouble. How much would be the cost to check in your luggage to BRI and back compared to luggage storage at FCO in the end?
