Ryanair passengers injured during horror movie…
There have been some bumps in the flight path.
A Ryanair flight from the UK to Spain’s Canary Islands was cut short after a number of passengers have been injured during a extreme bout of turbulence.
The bumpy experience occurred on Sunday, December 28, while flight FR1121 was flying between Birmingham and Tenerife, the Independent reported.
The Post reached out to the price range service for remark.

The cabin service had just gotten underway when all of a sudden, the plane encountered some bumps in the air. One 33-year-old fly-witness, who opted to stay nameless, in contrast the turbulence to one thing “out of a horror movie,” Birmingham Live reported.
“We were smooth cruising then, out of nowhere all of a sudden, the plane jerked to the left extremely quickly and then to the right,” she recalled to the outlet. “It felt like a loss of control, and then we plummeted down and we were flung out of our seats.”
She added, “The cabin crew said within their 10 years as cabin crew, they’ve never experienced anything like it.”
After regaining control of the airplane, the pilots declared an emergency over Brittany, France and determined to return to the departure level.
They landed a mere hour and a half after initially taking off from Birmingham.
Paramedics met the passengers and crew upon arrival and tended to the wounded, although the extent of their accidents is yet unclear.
“The aircraft landed normally before passengers disembarked and returned to the terminal, where a small number of passengers were provided with medical assistance,” Ryanair said in a assertion.
The passengers then boarded a substitute plane that departed at 9:21 p.m., arriving at Tenerife South at 1:25 a.m. – more than six hours behind schedule.
While these Ryanair passengers are still recovering, others are up in arms over the airline’s resolution to remove paper boarding passes.
Last month, the Irish service announced that it forgone paper passes and instead switched to 100% digital.
Flyers now have to use the “myRyanair” app during check-in.
