A diabetic woman says she was abandoned at an airport in Alicante after Ryanair said she wasn't allowed on the plane home because her hand luggage was 'too big'.
Teresa Bruce spent a five-day trip in Benidorm after travelling from Prestwick Airport. While queueing up for her flight home, she was approached by a Ryanair staff member who claimed her hand luggage was too big to take on board.
The 63-year-old was then told she would need to fork out 69 euros for the suitcase to be placed in hold, even though she travelled with the same case just a few days earlier. The Asda employee from Irvine, Scotland, said she couldn't afford to pay the fee after spending all her cash during the holiday.
