It was sticking out very slightly. It seemed so unfair. The bag did fit in.“I was pretty furious but then I became more annoyed when people started walking past and they selected certain people to put their bag in. People were walking past with bags that would clearly not fit in the guide rack and they weren’t even being stopped.”She slammed the budget airline for its “inconsistent rules” which made her feel “helpless”.The grandmother was ultimately allowed to board the plane without paying the £75 excess fee after she showed staff the photo of the young girl’s suitcase being approved.GB News has approached Ryanair for comment
