Can I go through transfers with separate tickets/airlines? - Black Boss Can on Top Beside White Mug

I have two questions (as not quite sure how this works and have never done layovers):

I'm flying from Schengen Area to the UK via Ireland.

I have 2 options:

  1. Flying to Dublin with Ryanair and then with Stobart Air (Aer Lingus) to England.

  2. Flying to Dublin with Ryanair and then with Ryanair to England.

None of these options provide transfers, it's just me buying 2 separate tickets either from the same airline or two different ones (as per the first option above).

  • So therefore the tricky bit is - when I land in Dublin do I have to "enter" Ireland through Arrivals and then go to Departures and do the whole process again (security, luggage & passport check) or is it possible to land in Dublin Airport and then just walk to the gate where my plane to England is? Would it make a difference if I'm doing the whole journey only with one airline (Ryanair) or two airlines (Ryanair + Aer Lingus)?

  • And realistically how much time would I need to exit the first plane and step into the second one positively thinking there won't be any flight delays on that day?

Thanks a lot for any suggestions! <3

P.S. Only have cabin luggage, no checked in luggage.

Can you transit with different airlines?

If transit is made through the same airline, all process is handled by the airline. Transit flights can also be made through different airlines. In these cases, it is necessary to check the baggage policy of the airline. There are interline baggage agreements among the airports.

Can connecting flights be booked separately?

There are two different types of connecting flights. There are those that are included as one route on your ticket and scheduled by the airline or OTA, and then there those which you plan yourself and book separately, known as self-connecting flights.

What does it mean when the airline says separate tickets?

A new update introduces the option to search for separate tickets, meaning that Google will search individual segments \u2014 even if that means booking from different services.

Do I need a separate boarding pass for a connecting flight?

Do I need a boarding pass for a connecting flight? Yes. You'll probably get all boarding passes at once when you check in for your first flight, whether you check in online, on your smartphone, or at the airport.
