You will recall the original story in which Ryanair denied a gentleman a wheelchair without payment; condemnation followed around the world in the press, some of it in very strong terms.
Just a few weeks later I was medically repatriated via OPO after a bad break. Insurance paid for three seats and assistance but when I got to the airport, Ryanair refused to attend me and refused to supply a wheelchair. I was literally left standing with plaster up my leg, a flapping multiple break and not even a stick. Ryanair demanded that I pass through the airport first and they would take responsibility post security!
I was left with only one option which was to lay down on the concourse floor and refuse to move until the crowd of security guys that gathered forced Ryanair to act. I got a chair, and a ride to the plane in a van. Have not flown with them since.
