Sounds like a nonews article, did they charge the passengers for the oxygen?

In my experience a "terrifying descent" on RyanAir is an approach & landing... which is why they play that triumphant tone and a "Congratulations we've arrived" announcement.
 
They said they diverted.

Did they have to buy another ticket to get to there destination as the flight was completed.

I wonder if they had enough fuel.

Maybe a few of the hosties where a little on the chubby side...

Sorry for not being politically correct but Ryanair isn't either
 
To be fair, no matter who you’re flying, when the oxygen masks drop and you’re flying over mountains but then descend towards them, that’s got to be pretty scary. I’m not sure why the captain announced mayday to the cabin though? Shouldn’t that have gone to other air traffic and ATC in the area? Perhaps he flicked the wrong switch in the moment.

And at the same time, some passengers complain that they are not "advised" of the situation. Airlines can't win in these situations.
 
I wonder if Ryanair charged a extra fee for letting the passengers live? ;)
