A Leeds flyer has revealed their “nightmare” experience with Ryanair after being stuck in the airport for almost 18 hours and sent to the wrong overnight hotel after the flight was eventually cancelled.
Zac Walker’s flight from Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) to Alicante was due to depart at 10.20am on Monday, June 27, he arrived at 6.30am but was stuck there until midnight. At one point, he and the rest of Ryanair’s passengers were sat on the plane on the runway for four hours, waiting for it to depart.
The 21-year-old student has spoken of how “unhelpful” Ryanair staff were, practically “locking themselves in the cockpit” and unwilling to help a woman who was bottle feeding her baby unless she paid out for bottles of water.
