Punches thrown, vodka downed and music blared on chaotic Ryanair flight to Malta

Image: DPA/PA Images Image: DPA/PA Images AN RTÉ REPORTER has described a chaotic and at times “quite scary” Ryanair flight from Dublin to Malta during which drunken fights broke out amongst passengers who were headed for a dance festival.

“There were punches thrown, one man was held up to the window of the plane by his neck. So it was quite a scary experience, especially for those people not interested in the dance festival,” he said. It was when the flight did eventually take off “to the sound of dance music which was blaring all over the plane” that “the real messing really started,” Dineen said.“Huge groups congregated at both bathrooms mainly because the drinks carts were there and they bought many, many drinks and there was huge bottles from duty-free were opened, bottles of rum, bottles of vodka, bottles of whiskey and were being downed on the plane,” Dineen said.

“They seemed to think there was little they could do except advise people to turn down their radios. I didn’t witness any of them trying to take the glass bottles away from people, they kept serving alcohol on the flight for an hour and a half despite it being obvious that there was an issue considering there was so much alcohol already on people.”

If it was the same crew from Mon when I flew down then the little angry middle aged steward was also part of the problem. It was unnecessary to run up and down the aisle to tell a plane full of 20-somethings who knew each other to quiet down like a prefect. It's not a library.

diverting en route to off load these scum bags surely was thought about

Ryanair totally to blame for this. Obviously Some of these assholes had a lot of alcohol Taken at the airport, the flight delayed 45 minutes approximately, the same assholes opening their duty free and Ryanair serving them more alcohol . No duty of care shown in that case.

You can't blame Ryanair for people's behaviour - plus the airport bar DublinAirport will have a big part to play in it.

‘‘Twas only a party Boss”
