Ryanair passenger misses flight over ‘faint’ ink

A RYANAIR passenger missed out on a trip to Spain after check-in staff said the ink on her boarding pass was too faint to be electronically scanned.

English school teacher Sue Craig, 54 paid an extra £10 (€11) for an online boarding pass for a flight to Malaga, which she printed on her home computer.

But when she arrived at Bournemouth Airport an hour and a half before her flight, Ryanair staff said the barcode on her pass had failed to scan.
