Ryanair passengers stranded at Scots airport for 17 hours given '£3 food vouchers' for compensation

Frustrated Ryanair passengers say they were stranded at Edinburgh Airport for 17 hours - with only a £3 voucher for a closed restaurant.

Edinburgh Live reports that people, including young families with kids, claim they were told no-one from the airline was in the building to help them, with travellers forced to sleep on windowsills. Ryanair flight FR3732 was due to take off at around 9.40am on Saturday but passengers expecting to take off claimed they were faced with constant delays up until the latest departure time of 11.55pm.

Some desperate families took to Twitter and other social media sites to share their experience. One affected person Leila Okasha, who shared pictures from inside the airport on Saturday evening, said she was travelling with her husband and son and was trying to visit elderly parents.
