Ryanair's Heartless Act: Woman Denied Boarding to See Dying Grandfather

Ryanair Faces Backlash After Preventing Woman from Seeing Dying Grandfather A young woman, Carmen Diaz, has gone public with her distressing experience with Ryanair, sparking outrage on social media. Ms. Diaz, a resident of Brussels, was prevented from boarding a flight from Brussels to Asturias, Spain, on June 7th, 2025, to see her dying grandfather. Ryanair cited an oversized carry-on bag as the reason for denying her boarding, even after she explained the urgent family matter. "Despite my tears and pleas, they were unmoved," Ms. Diaz stated in her video. The incident has reignited debates about passenger rights and the potential for stricter regulations on airline baggage policies. Ryanair has yet to publicly respond to the situation.
