    I would love to know what would have happened if the people
    on the plane did not call the police because the airport was closed.

    would Ryanair have left them on the plane all night?

    Yeah! Man, they beat de man!

    Dick, are you even aware of what happened in the incident you posted?

    The police had to force entry into the airport not the aircraft,

    Air handlers and airport were at fault

    Passengers behaved like dicks, no need to beat on staff

    Do try harder.

    I'd would have had a **** so I'd be arrested :D.

    .....passengers wait in terminal.....passengers file sheepishly back onto plane...stewardesses smile smugly and offer sandwiches..at €15 a pop.....

    probably.

    What was with having no food or drink for six hours all about?

    is it just me or is the girl @2:18 seriously hot.

    Delayed flight

    Passengers restless

    Annoying American woman with a taste for the dramatic

    All home safe & sound


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,462 ✭✭✭✭WoollyRedHat


    Haha, if yous had to wait around for six hours delayed without food or water, you'd have a completelty different persepctive, I'd imagine.

    I read the story last week and it was the airports problem but in saying that I don't trust anything Ryanair say so if I was on the plane I would have reacted the same.

    This response in your passengers is what happens when you've a history of showing contempt for them.

    People fly Ryanair for a reason and its not to avail of their brilliant customer service

    Wasn't going to look at the video until this post, god I'm pathetic!

    EDIT: she's not bad.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,622 Mod ✭✭✭✭Amirani


    I really don't see what Ryanair could have done in this situation. Handling crew and the airport were completely at fault.

    If that's the dark haired one I'm thinking of, she's a solid 6. I prefer blondes.

    Any publicity is good publicity even if it is bad

    They could have handed out water. Thats the very least they should have done.

    Wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crisps. :D

    Not Ryanair's fault at all, they could have spoken to people better but the situation wasn't caused by them

    What were they meant to do? Just open the doors and let the passengers walk off with no ground handlers to get them to and into the building? There would have been passengers walking round all over the shop, amongst the fuel, on the runway (still busy with cargo flights).

    Same old anti-Ryanair brigade kicking off

    How did the passengers behave like dicks?

    How did you come to that conclusion?

    The wouldn't have had nearly enough for all the pax. The cabin crew also would likely have been breaching aviation safety regulations by doing so and could well have lost their jobs/been prosecuted. Airlines aren't allowed dispense food/beverages while grounded as it could impede disembarkation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,142 ✭✭✭Hitchens


    It shows the power the Police have as well, I would hope the Gardai would act like that in similar circumstances

    If Ryanair are as bad as what people like you make out, how come they are the world's most successful airline?
    Are you saying that the passengers are foolish to have booked?

    What? Water free? Next they'll be asking for tea

    Of course. But only if it took them over the 40 hrs

    shes airplane hot, in the real world she doesn't hold up


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 364 ✭✭d9oiu2wk07blr5


    Much easier to get around the regulation which obliges airline carriers to provide passengers with overnight accommodation, food and refreshments, phonecalls, emails and any other form of reasonable assistance if they're boarded on a plane as opposed to being in a terminal building....and that's why they'll try to board you.

    Nah, she's hot.

    Ryanair staff should have realised (I think they knew all along) that the plane was going nowhere and should have gotten somebody to open the terminal so people could get inside. And yes, this is possible, my gf was in a situation like this in Hamburg few years ago (not Ryanair or Aer Lingus) , they got security pretty quickly and opened the terminal up. Food and drink arrived after a while.

    I presume the plane couldn't take off after a certain time because of restrictions on noise etc. but there's no need to keep people on board for that length of time, if there is, then just tell them the truth from the beginning. Badly handled by Ryanair here. Hope they learn some lessons.
