Ryanair passenger arrested at Shannon 'thought she was still in Spain' after 'toxic mix' of Xanax and alcohol

A drunken Ryanair passenger was in such a state that she thought that she was still in Spain when arrested by gardaí on her return to Shannon airport from Alicante last month, a court has heard.

Solicitor for Ciara Bradshaw (aged 38), John Casey, told a court today that Ms Bradshaw is a nervous flyer and “a toxic mix” of consuming alcohol and prescription medication had resulted in her behaviour on the Shannon bound flight on Saturday, August 17, last.
