Who knew that having a spot of tea could be so harmful?

A UK couple has accused Ryanair employees of kicking them out of the airport after barring them from flying due to a minuscule tea stain on one of their passports.

“It’s just a stain on her passport,” Rory Allen, 29, told Kennedy News of the “embarrassing” incident, which occurred July 7 while he and his girlfriend Nina Wilkins were preparing to fly the budget airline to Costa Brava, Spain for a week.

The seven-night vacay had been a Christmas gift present from Nina’s 57-year-old mum Sarah Wilkins.

A Montreal-bound Air Canada flight from Morocco was canceled after a flight attendant was caught on camera ranting and raving at a passenger who had reportedly requested a blanket.

Video of the incident aboard Friday’s Flight AC73 from Casablanca shows the enraged female flight attendant gesturing angrily while yelling at an unseen passenger in both English and French.

“You will behave or we will get off!” the flight crew member bellows in now-viral footage captured by another passenger. “I don’t want no bullying against my crew!”

India-based IndiGo, the largest low-cost airline in the country, will allow female flyers to see a special seating map during the online check-in process that shows them — in pink — where other members of the fairer sex are seated, The Mirror reported. 



Male passengers will not be made privy to the same information — instead, they’ll continue to see all available seats, as one normally would.

A Famous Bygone Airline Is Returning to the Skies in 2025

Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary is famous for, among other things, his public complaints about how quickly (or, rather, slowly) Boeing delivers airplanes to his company. And since Boeing is struggling to build planes more quickly after regulator-imposed slowdowns following a door plug blowout earlier this year, Ryanair has an idea of what to do with that money instead.

Ryanair can't get Boeing planes, so it's spending $873 million on something else instead

Just days into August, Samsung has announced a major recall of over 1 million stoves nationwide due to safety concerns that pets could accidentally trigger a fire hazard. The South Korea-based manufacturer of electronics on Thursday recalled its Slide-In Electric Range stoves due to their front-facing knobs, which can be easily turned on by accidental bumps from people and even pets. In total, Samsung has recalled 1,120,905 stoves, across an estimated 30 models sold between 2013 and 2024.

The biggest mystery going into a series of National Transportation Safety Board hearings about Boeing’s 737 Max 9 door plug blowout incident remains a mystery. An initial NTSB investigation into what caused the coverup for an unused emergency door to disappear into the sky mid-flight this January found that four key bolts that were supposed to keep it in place were not bolted on.
