A passenger who arrived late for his flight at Dublin Airport was wrestled to the ground by Ryanair staff as he ran towards the plane shouting “wait”.
The man, in his 20s, was arrested after breaking out of the terminal through a security door and sprinting towards the aircraft as it taxied to the runway on Thursday morning.
He and a woman were late for their 6. 50am flight to Amsterdam and arrived at the boarding gate after it closed.
An airport spokesman said: “They were engaging with Ryanair staff at the gate and the male passenger was becoming agitated.
“He was banging on the window to try and get the aircraft to wait and he then broke through a door and made his way onto the apron, trying to flag the aircraft down. ”
