And again a shocking brawl on the plane. This time it was a Ryanair plane that took off from Malta to Stansted Airport in London. And as in many other cases, this incident was documented on video and in photographs. The video shows two passengers fighting violently over seating arrangements on the flight. According to testimonies, the wild fight, which took place a few days ago, began after one of the passengers refused to let another passenger pass "through him" from the aisle to the window seat.
Everything caught fire within seconds, and other passengers immediately rushed to the scene and tried to separate the two. According to a report on the Daily Mail website, the crew also tried to intervene to stop the brawl. An eyewitness to the incident said: "A British man wouldn't let an American pass through to get to his window seat, and then a few words and curses were thrown into the air before the brawl started. The flight was delayed for two hours – everyone was upset about it."
Ryanair continues to star
The brawl came just days after a Ryanair customer won a lawsuit in small claims court in Brittany after his flight to Bristol Airport was delayed at Alicante Airport in Spain. Rob O'Malley, 50, was on a birthday trip to the Spanish town of Benidorm. He claimed that the low-cost carrier lied to him when it explained the delay of his flight back home. The passenger, along with eight friends, waited more than four hours for their flight to Bristol - which Ryanair said was related to problems related to Tropical Storm Hermien.
But Robb did his own research and found that the storm actually struck off the west coast of Africa and subsided the day before his flight was scheduled to take off, on September 25, 2022. The storm itself brought heavy rains as far as the Canary Islands, about 2,100 kilometers northeast of Benidorm, the town where he was vacationing. He was then forced to "chase" for six months the compensation he claimed he deserved. In the end, last March he received compensation and court costs totaling £516 (about NIS 2,460).
