Members of the Irish women’s wheelchair basketball team say they have “never felt so uncomfortable” due to the behaviour of Ryanair staff as they tried to board a flight to England on Friday, December 12.
The flight, which was due to take off from Dublin Airport and travel to Newcastle-upon-Tyne at 7.40pm, did not set off until after 9pm – with staff reportedly trying to blame the nine wheelchair users for the delay.
