Ryanair threatens rowdy passengers with £500 fines after flights are forced to land
- On June 12, 2025, Ryanair introduced a £500 fine for passengers removed from flights due to disruptive behaviour.
- This measure follows a series of incidents in recent years where unruly passengers forced diversions and caused large operational costs.
- Ryanair stated that disruptive acts in confined spaces are unacceptable and the fine will be the minimum penalty while civil damages will also be pursued.
- The airline cited a 15,000-euro claim for damages related to a diverted Dublin to Lanzarote flight that included accommodation and legal fees.
- Ryanair expects the new fine and legal actions to deter unruly behaviour and ensure safer, disruption-free travel for passengers and crews.
