Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, today (Thurs, 13 Nov) welcomed the decision by the Dublin District Court to convict an unruly passenger who disrupted flight FR7122 from Dublin to Tenerife on 24 September 2022 by physically assaulting another passenger onboard. This disruptive passenger pleaded guilty and received a 3-month suspended sentence.
Ryanair is committed to ensuring that all passengers and crew travel in a comfortable and stress-free environment free of unnecessary disruption caused by a tiny number of unruly passengers. Ryanair has a strict zero tolerance policy towards passenger misconduct and will continue to take action to combat unruly passenger behaviour on aircraft for the benefit of the vast majority of passengers who do not disrupt flights.
Ryanair’s Director of Communications, Jade Kirwan, said:
“We welcome the Dublin District Court’s conviction of this unruly passenger whose inexcusable behaviour disrupted a flight from Dublin to Tenerife in September 2022. This demonstrates just one of the many consequences (including travel bans and offload fines) that passengers who disrupt flights will face as part of Ryanair’s zero tolerance policy. We hope this conviction will further deter disruptive behaviour on flights so that both passengers and crew can travel in a comfortable and stress-free environment.”
