Ryanair will dispute passenger's claim he was sucked out of window
21 days ago
- Ryanair disputes claim that part of a passenger's body was sucked out of a broken window on a flight from Greece to Germany, saying the passenger was sucked towards the window but not out.
- The passenger, Ljubisa Karović, was severely injured; his lawyer says his head and arm were sucked out due to depressurization.
- Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary stated the airline will contest the account, while the NTSB leads the investigation alongside Boeing, GE, and Ryanair.
- A passenger played a crucial role in rescuing Karović by blocking the window with a suitcase after a bag was sucked out.
- About one-third of shareholders voted against O'Leary's €150m pay deal, but it was approved by a 2-1 margin.
- O'Leary also disputes the UK air traffic control provider Nats over a recent failure, accusing its boss of lying, and compares competitors to 'rapists'.
