@mlsnycfc @DublinAirport @Ryanair @KrakowAirport We were told to make our way to Katowice to take your flight back to Dublin, we paid a fortune for a taxi to get there only to be bussed back to Krakow when you got diverted...10h later and we're sitting outside a closed @Ryanair ticket desk without a single update from staff

[Dr Debra Higgins @DrDebraHiggins]

Come on @Ryanair it's time to think outside the box and get your Dublin flight out of Krakow airport, no information, no assistance, make our own way to Katowice and bussed back, it's not good enough
