I wonder.
Claims that passengers travelled without Passports? I have had the pleasure of travelling with Ryanair and always was asked for my passport. The Papers are full of stories about people travelling home to see sick parents and children and being turned away because they had forgotten their passports and implying Ryanair are the worst people in the world.
Its also my opinion that in every group of people no matter where in the world no matter what the profession there are always those who are "casual" drug users. Its almost always the exception to the rule. I don't think all other ryanair pilots should be tarred with the same brush. Maybe I'm wrong?
If their story is genuine however they have now given themselves another thing to worry about and that is a possible lawsuit.
