Can I use a US Mastercard to purchase tickets on Ryan Air?

I have read everything on their website but if it says anywhere that they take US credit cards I missed it. They still haven't released the flights for next May but I want to be prepared to book and pay for them once they are available. I wish they had a way to contact them via e-mail for questions.

Ryanair accept Visa and Mastercard credit cards and the following debit cards......

Yes, you can pay with any US Credit card, but if you can I would definitely use AMEX, much more protection in case somethimg goes wrong.

Do they accept Amex? Their site (quoted above) only says Visa and Mastercard.

Reading between the lines, I think you were asking if they took credit cards that are in US dollars.

Your US credit card will pay the charge in the local currency where the purcahse is made. When you get your statement, the charge will have been converted to dollars.

The one exception is if Ryan uses dynamic currency exchange, but your card will still work, and we don;t need to go throughthe details of that.
