Ryanair has initiated legal action against a passenger whose behavior forced a flight diversion on April 9, 2024. The incident led to an overnight delay and disrupted the travel plans of 160 passengers. Ryanair is seeking over €15,000 ($15,438) in damages through proceedings filed in the Irish Circuit Court.
"This passenger’s inexcusable behaviour forced this flight to divert to Porto where it was delayed overnight, causing 160 passengers to face unnecessary disruption as well as losing a full day of their holiday," stated Ryanair.
The airline emphasized its commitment to maintaining a safe and respectful environment for all passengers and crew. "Ryanair is committed to ensuring that all passengers and crew travel in a safe and respectful environment, without unnecessary disruption caused by a tiny number of unruly passengers."
