Ryanair said “inexcusable behaviour” by the passenger, on a flight from Dublin to the Spanish island of Lanzarote on April 9, forced the plane to divert to the Portuguese city of Porto where it was delayed overnight. Accommodation, passenger expenses, and landing costs totalled 15,000 euros, it said.
“We have now filed civil proceedings to recover these costs from this passenger,” the airline said in a statement that did not name the passenger.
