Ryanair delays move to paperless boarding passes until after the summer season
Move aimed at reducing costs
Irish airline Ryanair has postponed its move to 100 percent paperless boarding passes to November 3. The move, announced last year, had been planned for May, but will now coincide with the rollout of its less busy winter schedule.

What a strange thing to want to do. Boarding passes are just images and text with a scannable code. It makes no difference whether they are on paper or a phone to the airlines or airports. Paper has many advantages. My favourite being it can't run out of battery, or crash, or otherwise stop working. But it also doesn't need network coverage or other apps to pass to other travellers in a group. And not everybody even has or even wants a smart phone. I can't see why they feel the need to restrict which we use, when both work just fine. Completely pointless.
