Ryanair = Ridiculous

So you go to the airport, your flight is delayed, your flight takes off - where do you expect to end up?
Apparently for Ryanair, a European low-cost airline, it doesn't really matter. There is no way that the airline didn't know the length of the flight time and that taking off at the time they did that their destination airport would be closed! But, that is what they did anyway!

OK, so that is pretty strange/weird/stupid of Ryanair right? What else could they do to botch this? It wouldn't seem like much more but that is when the incredible Ryanair flight crew sprung into action - or rather inaction! They apparently didn't notify passengers during the flight that the destination airport closed for the night so they just stopped flying and landed at a different airport - in a different country even!
What? You might be asking what is going on, is this some crazy story he is making up? NO, I am not making it up and it gets even better! Upon landing at the new airport (not the destination) the flight crew left the plane but the passengers protested and didn't leave because they weren't notified of this change of events or what else was going to happen. The passengers stayed on the plane for 4 hours until the middle of the night after the crew left the plane and turned off the power and lights. Way to go Ryanair! That is customer service! So the toilets were locked and there was no food or water for the passengers, another win - or collossal fail for Ryanair!

OK, I didn't make this up but here is the article I read about it and Ryanair didn't have a comment (surprise) but hopefully they will be in true form when they do comment and have something so idiotic that it rivals this story of repetitive failures. I love to write about stupid people (in this case an entire company and their employees).
