Ryanair issues verdict on EU’s entry-exit system after flexibility measures end

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleRyanair has criticised the European Union’s Entry-Exit System (EES) as a "shambles", warning travellers of long queues following the end of temporary flexibility measures. The EES mandates that non-EU visitors, including UK citizens, must register fingerprints and facial scans upon entering the 29-nation Schengen Area. The expiration of rules allowing member states to suspend checks during peak periods has raised fears of widespread travel delays and missed flights. Ryanair called on the European Commission to extend system derogations until April 2027 to give border authorities time to recruit staff and improve infrastructure. The European Commission stated it is offering additional operational support to member states needing adjustments, aiming to resolve remaining issues by the end of the year.
