Young boy 'in tears' after being told he can't board Ryanair flight to visit granny

A four-year-old boy who was "excited to see his nan" in Spain was "turned away" from the airport after being told he couldn't board the Ryanair flight.

Jacob Thomas was "holding hands and laughing" with his cousin at the airport in Liverpool on Thursday and couldn't wait to jet off abroad. But, what should have been a relaxing time away ended in "tears" as the family was told he couldn't get on the plane.

Jacob's uncle, Ben, was flying to Alicante with his wife and daughter on July 28 when his brother Justin Thomas decided to let them take his son Jacob with them.
