I have 2 flights by Ryanair. Funchal-Stansted and Stansted-Bologna. Do I need to do passport control in Stansted? Or I can stay airside?
I'm not sure if I can stay in transit or if I need to do passport control in Stansted.
I already did check in on line for both flights.
Best Answer
Ryan Air does not offer Funchal->Bologna as a single itinerary, so these are two separate tickets (which is typical for Ryan Air)
I need to do passport control in London?
Yes. If you have bags checked, they will be unloaded in Stansted. You will have to collect them, go through customs and bring them to the Ryan Air bag drop to check them in again.
In some airports, you stay airside, if you have no checked bags and already have your boarding passes for the next flight. However, Stansted doesn't appear to be one of those. See http://www.connectionreview.com/blog/connecting-at-london-stansted-airport-useful-tips-for-transit-passengers-40
