BA have the "face mask" readily available in the "utility" kit, They even gave us all one of them during the SEPT (training) day one year. I still carry it in my wallet. It is called the Resusci Face Shield supplied by Laerdal Medical. Sensibly it has a "CPR reminder" on the back.
If Ryanair do carry a "utility" kit (over and above the IAA requirements) what does it contain? Why I ask is that a while back a fellow passenger (one of a party returning from a stag do!) wanted something for a severe headache (not sure if the word migraine was used). He was told that there was nothing on board.
He would have been told this as the crew are not permitted to administer paracetamol to anyone who may be / or have been under the influence of alcohol. The crew are not to know when the last intake of alcohol was, so therefore could be giving drungs out whiles pax is tanked up! That crew member was in her right not to give out any, and the easiest way to say no is that there are none on board. Why didn't you buy any in the terminal?????
