Ryanair is getting an early start on Christmas, launching its 2026 festive gift cards for travellers who might prefer a holiday to another present under the tree.

Available from €25, the cards can be used towards future travel, whether that’s a winter city break, a little sunshine or a summer holiday next year.
Customers can choose between a digital gift card, delivered by email almost immediately, or a physical version sent by post with a personalised message.
Both options come in a selection of festive designs.
Ryanair’s Director of Communications, Jade Kirwan, said the cards are intended for anyone planning to travel in the new year, including friends and family living abroad.
For those who would rather give someone a trip to look forward to than another pair of Christmas socks, it offers a different kind of present.
The gift cards are available now through Ryanair’s website.
