Confused about Ryanair cabin bag policy

Feeling confused is natural. Ryanair’s extras are designed to confuse.

Yes, buying “Priority & 2 cabin bags” does not change your baggage allowance, it only changes in what part of the aircraft the bags will be transported. If you do not pay this fee, you are allowed to bring your small bag on to the aircraft, while you will leave your larger bag in a pile outside the aircraft, and it will be placed in the hold. You will then need to collect it from baggage claim. Paying the fee enables you to bring the small bag and the larger bag into the aircraft.

Since you have four tickets and have paid two “Priority & 2 cabin bags” fees, you will be able to bring four small bags and two larger bags into the cabin, and you can gate-check two larger bags.

The same security rules apply to the gate-checked larger bags as would apply to carry-on luggage, since you will be bringing the bags through security and to the gate yourself.
