Attitude of your staff

A staff member named Layla yelled at me while I was paying for a second bag. First she was annoyed that she had to repeat herself while she has such a thick accent is not my fault, then she had such a big attitude and was completely rude

Birmingham staff member incredibly rude I was disgusted

We were going to board flight on.17/8 at 8.30am from Birmingham to Paris Beauvais.Male staff member organising boarding "shouted" "whose priority.".like he was herding cattle. When I said we were he asked me to put my suitcase in slot to check size and the way he spoke was quite frankly disgusting. "If it sticks out a bit thatl be another Β£60". I was quite frankly appauled I had paid for the carry on case ss I had for my wife and family. The suitcase was clearly standard size, I have flown Ryan Air many times but am very reluctant to do so again having been spoken to like that. I paid good money for the flights- I look forward to your response.. Jonathan Smith

No reason given

Flight was initially delayed, then it was said takeoff would be at 4;25pm but took much longer to board and by the time we were on the plane it was well past 5pm. Then we were stuck on the plane itself for about an hour and a half if not more. No water, no food, had to order our own on the plane after it took off and all at an additional cost.

Our flight from Shannon to alicante (booking ref: CN813A) was over booked therefore, my wife and I were transferred to knock airport via 2 bus journeys for the 17:00 flight from Knock airport. We were told by ryanair staff in Shannon that we would be compensated for €400 each for which they took our contact details. So far we have not heard from ryanair and I have attempted to fill out the compensation form however, it will not allow me to complete my application.

Not allowed priority boarding with children

We were unable to board using priority boarding with our children as they did not have PB. However we have flown on numerous occasions with you and never encountered this issue previously. We have ALWAYS been able to board with my children even though they do not have extra luggage. It is completely unacceptable..I demand an explanation as to why you have allowed us on all our previous flights including the flight from stansted to Alicante 3 weeks prior!!

Other people given our seats, we had to wait to be allocated

When we boarded the aircraft our seats were occupied, the plane which had arrived had less seats than expected. I had my flights booked months in advance and seats together as I was travelling with a 3 and 6 year old. We had to wait until all passengers were boarded to be allocated our seats, my children were upset and worried. I travel with ryanair regularly and have never had a problem before. The staff were very pleasant and apologetic but I'm very disappointed at having to wait and calm my children down

Barcelona-Edinburgh

Economy

No reason given

Got to airport in good time. Through security, checked Flight info and suggesting flight was delayed to approx 23.30. Waited until they gave a gate number. Went to gate waited until nearer delayed time, then suggested that more wait until they then announced a further delay until 00.25approx. Wated again and then furthered delayed until past 2am. Eventually we were informed that flight had been cancelled. went to designated Ryanair waiting area where we were told that flight was now rescheduled for 5.45am that morning. No time indeed for Ryanair to put people up in a hotel for the night and a obvious delaying tactic not to compensate people by giving them rest and a room for the night. I am a MS sufferer and registered disabled and I am travelling with my 8 year old child. My condition is exacerbated with stress meaning my mobility becomes weakened. I am looking after an 8 year old child and there was no communication between the delayed times and no assistance at hand to guide me and my son. My condition has worsened on return and this has severely knocked my confidence with travelling. I will be returning to my GP for advice, but on these grounds I am seeking considerable compensation for this debacle. To add Ryanair sent an email suggesting the delays were due to staff shortages, only for the next email to suggest this was due to weather conditions. My wife's flight from the previous day was also delayed by over 4 hours. We seek clarification and compensation before this matter is passed on to my solicitor.

Seat fell off

I’m writing to inform you about the terrifying experience I had on the above flight on the date given. Whilst taking off with the plane accelerating the seat literally came from under me completely off and left me on the hard metal base of the chair. This apart from being absolutely terrifying was very dangerous rendering my seatbelt useless and loose meaning I was not stable in my seat and in great danger of injuring myself and people around me 1 of which was my daughter who was in the middle seat next to me. I thanks god it was not her in my seat as something more serious could and probably would have happened. I gripped my seat and managed to secure myself for the take off and when the plane was at cruising altitude spoke to the staff of the aircraft. The situation was made worse when all your staff did was laugh and tell me to sit with my daughter in the middle. This is obviously not safe. I presume that is why from your rules as a 3 year old she needs her own seat. If this wasn’t the case then I would not spend a considerable amount of money on buying her own seat. Not wanting to endanger my daughter further I tried to adjust my seat myself with no help from your staff. This didn’t work at all as the seat was broken and unfortunately the same thing happened shortly afterwards and I ended up on the sharp metal base of the seat again. Whilst landing I sat with my daughter on my lap in her seat and felt very unsafe. I’m now not overly excited about flying again and very unhappy with the whole experience, this combined with being delayed and arriving 2hours late wasn’t good at all as I’m sure you can imagine. I would like compensation for our flight as I feel I did not get the service I paid for and was left in a very dangerous situation. I don’t wish to make this public and hope the hope the matter gets dealt with quickly. Thankfully no one was hurt but this was only from my quick thinking. I wait to hear your response. I enclose the horrifying pictures of my ordeal and seat number.

Barcelona - Bag that fits dimensions

We took a holiday in Spain, with Ryanair. We flew from Brussels to Malaga, Malaga to Barcelona and finally from Barcelona to Brussels. We had 1 small and 1 carry on bag (that both respect the dimensions of Ryanair). We encountered a problem on our flight from Barcelona to Brussels. 1. The crew made my wife measure her bag, because it seemed "too large". Knowing that: - We had no problem on our other flights and the bags all fitted in the overhead compartment - Other People had bags that were at least as big as my wife's, and they were not measured 2. We fitted the bag in the "measuring structure". It was a tight fit, but it fitted. In the words of the crew: "The fit is too tight". To my knowledge we are entitled to utilise every centimeter we get, so if it's 55cm x 40cm it still fits the criteria. 3. We were then forced to pay a 70EUR fee. We weren't given any other options (waiting for every bag cabinbag to be loaded, and then load it in the cargo like they sometimes do when there's no room left) 4. Three other people that also flew from Brussels to Barcelona had no problem with their bags, and only encountered a problem from Barcelona to Brussels (for the same bag that was okay on the away trip). All the people that were selected were going back (contrary to an away trip) to Brussels, thus putting them in a situation where they were forced to pay. 5. The crew was parroting "the bag won't fit" repeatedly, even after explaining them our situation over and over. They also wouldn't allow me to take pictures of how it fitted and called security on me when I tried again. I would like to put in a complaint and would like a reimbursement of the 70EUR my wife and me had to pay for a bag that fitted their criteria.

We queued again in the corridor again but not in the departure date waiting for staff. No one came. On the 3rd attempt we were finally boarded some 5 hours later. There was no offer of any food or drink during this time and we were advised that there was no one from. Ryan Air present at Birmingham departure gate. Very disappointed and bearing on mind I have a heart condition this added undue stress. There were only 2 guys I guess airport staff who helped us.

Almost denied boarding because of checked small bag

The assistant refused to board because we had a small bag (55x40x20) which was supposed to be dropped off at checkin (already paid). I had to pay extra 70€ to board with small bag. The fact that the bag was paid was totally ignored, the solution was though easy we could leave the bag down the stairs so it would be loaded with other checked bags. She didn’t listen and didn’t cooperate, this is stealing money from people.

Technical problems

Initial correspondence received to the app indicated this was due to a fault on the plane at a previous destination; however, the airline have subsequently denied this. The vast majority of flights from Dublin were disrupted on the evening in question leaving the airport in chaos; the majority of ground staff ranged from unhelpful to downright rude - a number of off duty staff were still wandering public areas of the airport in uniform and whilst harmless, were not behaving in a manner which could be considered professional. Upon occasions of this nature, customer service should take priority over forcefully enforcing baggage policies and demanding more money from already exasperated passengers. The airline have publicly apologised for their total failure to provide an acceptable level of service throughout much of 14 August, but have later retracted this, stating it was outside of their control. It is worth noting that ATC issues can hardly can be considered an act of God, and are therefore entirely within the control of the aviation industry. The flight was delayed in excess of three hours, the majority of facilities within the airport closed. The flight, when it eventually departed was far from smooth. A number of passengers would have been stranded upon arrival at LBA as it was far too late for public transport, which would have been readily available had the airline felt fit to run their service at the advertised time.

Paying for luggage that fit in the box

Hello, I took my flight from cologne to London Stansted at 7pm today. The gate Ryanair crew was very rude and unprofessional. They took a lot of people out of the line even if they only had a bag pack that fit the description which is allowed. I had a bag that perfectly fit into the box and I even took a picture of it. Nevertheless the crew insisted that I pay the 60€ fee? There is no reason that I had to pay. I except to get the money back. I am happy to send you the photos of the proof and the recipe. I do understand your terms but that staff was just mad and unprofessional in everything. Again my bag fit and also I was told to put it under my seat in the plane. Which shows that it wasn’t oversized. Please get back to ASAP. Best regards Vivien Ostrowski

Our flight from Barcelona to Manchester was delayed 3 times and then cancelled 4 HOURS after we were meant to depart. The airline representatives in the airport were very unhelpful and we ended up standing in a queue for nearly 2 hours at 2am just to be told to claim back online. We had to book alternative tickets ourselves. We were stuck in Barcelona airport from 6pm on the Thursday until 11.30am on the Friday when we should have been back in Manchester at 11.30pm on the Thursday and only made it back thanks to Jet2. When we got back home, we had to claim our refund from LoveHolidays (who were super helpful and processed the refund quickly) but had to approach Ryanair for a refund for the alternative tickets we had to purchase which were more expensive and also to claim the compensation. For over 2 months I have had to contact them time and time again only to get no information and to be palmed off and have my queries closed. I even had an online chat that was ended before I had even finished requesting help. This has been the most infuriating experience of travel and I most certainly won’t be using Ryanair again. I know you pay for what you get but I didn’t even get to where I needed to be. Disappointed as I have had a couple of reasonable flights with them but this has well and truly put me off.

Technical problems

I am, Liora Kotlyar, passport number 36524190, writing to express my dissatisfaction with the recent flight number FR1748 from Frankfurt to London. The flight was delayed by almost three hours, and we were required to remain on the plane throughout this period. The conditions inside the cabin were very uncomfortable and stuffy. There was no air conditioning, so all the passengers were supposed to sit in a hot plane for a three hours During the delay, no water was provided, and we had to pay for any refreshments. I was unable to purchase water and food because my card was not working and I didn’t have any cash. Nowhere was it indicated that passengers should carry cash or ensure their card works to avoid dehydration or hunger during delays. Additionally, I had purchased priority boarding, but despite this, I ended up standing in all the queues with everyone else, which rendered the priority boarding useless. Furthermore, nobody informed us about the delay in advance, which added to the inconvenience. I would also like to mention that I had a scheduled meeting that I was late for due to this delay. I kindly request that you review this situation and provide an explanation and compensation for the inconvenience experienced. Sincerely, Liora Kotlyar ZS7B8K

We are writing to formally complain about being denied boarding for my flight to Budapest on 15th of August despite following all the necessary guidelines and legal requirements. I hold a 1951 Refugee Convention travel document (blue document) and have meticulously ensured that I do not require a visa for entry into Hungary. This was confirmed through various sources, including the official website of the Hungarian embassy and direct correspondence with them. Upon arrival at the airport, I was informed by your supervisor, Ethan, that I would not be allowed to board the flight. Ethan's reasoning was based on a past incident where another traveler with a similar document was denied entry, which he believed justified his decision to deny me boarding as well. However, I provided Ethan with the correct and verified information, including my previous successful entries into EU countries (Croatia, Germany, and the Netherlands) using the same document. Additionally, Ethan incorrectly stated that Northern Ireland is in the Schengen Area, which is factually incorrect, as Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom and not in the Schengen Area. Despite presenting all the necessary information, I was refused boarding, causing significant distress and disruption to my travel plans. This refusal was unjustified, as I had followed all necessary legal protocols and confirmed my travel eligibility. Given the unjustified denial of boarding, I am requesting the following: Full Refund for the cost of my flights, as the reason for denial was not valid. Compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004 for being wrongfully denied boarding. This regulation stipulates that passengers who are unjustly denied boarding are entitled to compensation ranging from €250 to €600, depending on the distance of the flight. Reimbursement for the costs associated with my missed hotel booking and any other non-refundable expenses incurred due to this incident. Rebooking Option on the next available flight or alternative arrangements, if applicable.

My name is Eram, and I am writing to formally complain about being denied boarding for my flight to Budapest on [date], despite following all the necessary guidelines and legal requirements. I hold a 1951 Refugee Convention travel document (blue document) and have meticulously ensured that I do not require a visa for entry into Hungary. This was confirmed through various sources, including the official website of the Hungarian embassy and direct correspondence with them. Upon arrival at the airport on Thursday the 15th of August at around 06:15, I was informed by your supervisor at the check-in desk, Ethan, that I would not be allowed to board the flight. Ethan's reasoning was based on a past incident where another traveler with a similar document was denied entry, which he believed justified his decision to deny me boarding as well. However, I provided Ethan with the correct and verified information, including my previous successful entries into EU countries (Croatia, Germany, and the Netherlands) using the same document. Additionally, Ethan incorrectly stated that Northern Ireland is in the Schengen Area, which is factually incorrect, as Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom and not in the Schengen Area. I believe Ethan is confused with a different document (Certificate of Travel - black document - requires visa to Hungary) Despite presenting all the necessary information, I was refused boarding, causing significant distress and disruption to my travel plans. This refusal was unjustified, as I had followed all necessary legal protocols and confirmed my travel eligibility. Given the unjustified denial of boarding, I am requesting the following: Full Refund for the cost of my flights, as the reason for denial was not valid. Compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004 for being wrongfully denied boarding.

On the 14th August 9 am I was trying to make online check in , yet firbsonw reason it never allowed me until 11 am which said that the check in online is closed , as I rushed to the air port I checked out the screen with destination and check in details . The screen marked that the checkin closes at 12:35 . I arrived at the check in desk 12.28 . But for some unknown reason the lady behind the check in desk didn't allow me to board the flight . I had no check in luggage and also showed her the fast security pass . She said the check in was closed and Ryan air website says that you will be allowed check in 40 min before flight . I have photos to prove that I was there at 11:31 that's after 3 minutes of dialogue. She also knew that the flight was delayed an hour . So I had plenty of time to board the plane . But. She didn't allow me . I needed to get to Barcelona for a wedding and now missed the wedding . I still had to visit my friends so I booked the next flight to Barcelona . At 00:45 15th August . I don't think this is fair . I had everything in order and I was on time for check in in accordance with the airport timetable . I feel that this whole thing was a scam . She even suggested that I buy a new ticket instead of calling her supervisor. I missed my best friends wedding dinner . We are not happy

Unsafe disembarkment stairs at Manchester

Ryanair crew were warning all passengers disembarking off the rear door of the plane to be careful due to the state of the stairs wobbling. These stairs were inappropriate to be used and both MAG service and Ryanair should not have allowed the use for all safety reasons and insisted on safer sturdy stairs. I stepped on with my cabin case and hand luggage and had to immediately attain my balance and in doing so jarred my back. The wobble was unbelievable and I have suffered today, I have been in pain and unable to walk upright.

The flight from zadar to weeze was delayed by 2 hours , me and my freinds were sitting in the airport area after doing our online check in , we were 6 people and no one had heard any kind of announcement for the weeze airport . By checking in online we were relaxed because we already got our seats but when we reach there before 1 hour of boarding the airport security staff said that you are late and your seats have been given to someone else . But we were there and no personal consent had been given . No care has been provided by the airline. I missed my important meeting due to it and we have to buy new flight tickets .
