More info Police were forced to board a Ryanair flight upon its landing in Edinburgh earlier this week after a "disruptive passenger" reportedly caused chaos onboard. The FR9188 flight from Palma de Mallorca to Edinburgh on Wednesday, July 9, was scheduled to set off from Spain at 4.10pm and arrive in the Scottish capital at 6.10pm but it didn't touch down until around 7pm. It is understood that, upon landing, passengers had to remain seated as Police Scotland officers boarded the aircraft and arrested a 69-year-old man, who has since been charged, reports The Daily Record. Ran by crew from Lauda Europe, a Maltese airline that operates on behalf of Ryanair, it remains unconfirmed what exactly the man did aboard the flight to prompt police attendance. Speaking on Friday, a spokesperson from Ryanair said: "The crew of this Lauda flight from Palma de Mallorca to Edinburgh (9 July) called ahead for police assistance after a passenger became disruptive onboard. "The aircraft was met by local police upon arrival at Edinburgh Airport and this passenger was removed. Ryanair has a strict zero tolerance policy towards passenger misconduct and will continue to take decisive action to combat unruly passenger behaviour, ensuring that all passengers and crew travel in a safe and respectful environment, without unnecessary disruption. "This is a matter for local police." A Police Scotland spokesperson also said on Friday: "Around 7pm on Wednesday, 9 July 2025 we received a report of a disruptive passenger on a flight from Palma to Edinburgh. "Officers attended upon landing in Edinburgh Airport and a 69-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with aviation offences. A report has been made to the Procurator Fiscal." Edinburgh Airport was contacted for comment but referred to Ryanair. Lauda Europe has been approached directly for comment.
