[buffyb1]

Technically you don't, as a member of an EU State travelling within the EU you don't require a passport.... BUT... most airlines insist that you have a valid passport before allowing you on their aircraft, some will allow a photocard id. Check with the airline before you book, or you could find yourself not allowed on the flight and not entitled to a refund as their terms and conditions often state.

you do i went there a couple of years ago. they take your photo before you get on the pkane as well and check it just before you board the plane. Make sure you go to Temple Bar.....fantastic!

Ohh sorry, I was wrong, just seen this :

All passengers must present valid photo identification at check-in for all flights. The only acceptable forms of photo-ID on Ryanair flights are:
: A valid passport
: A valid Government issued National Identity Card issued by a European Economic Area (EEA) country. Only the following countries from the EEA issue National Identity Cards which are acceptable for carriage: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Italy, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden (for travel within the Schengen area only) and Switzerland.
: National Identity Cards issued by the Government of Gibraltar.
: A valid European Economic Area (EEA) driving licence with photo, presented by a passenger whose place of birth is within the EEA is acceptable only for travel on internal flights within the UK, internal flights within Italy and UK-Republic of Ireland-UK.
In accordance with Article 28(1) of the 1951 UN Convention, a valid UN Refugee Convention Travel Document issued by a Government in place of a valid passport is acceptable.
