Man nearly sucked out of Ryanair plane after window 'detached' mid-flight

A man was nearly sucked out of a Ryanair flight when a window 'detached' mid-flight en route to Germany, according to witnesses and officials. The incident occurred over North Macedonia, with the window reportedly broken by debris from one of the plane's engines. A passenger described hearing a loud noise similar to a tire bursting, followed by a decompression event. Other passengers pulled the man back into the cabin before he could be fully ejected. The man, a tourist from Serbia, was hospitalized with friction burns but remained in good condition. Ryanair stated the flight returned to Thessaloniki shortly after takeoff, landed normally, and provided a replacement aircraft for the remaining passengers.

Man nearly sucked out of window on Ryanair flight

A Serbian tourist was nearly sucked out of a Ryanair flight window during a journey from Thessaloniki, Greece, to Memmingen, Germany, after a window reportedly detached mid-flight. The incident occurred over North Macedonia, with reports suggesting a piece of debris from the plane’s engine caused the damage. Other passengers pulled the man back into the cabin before the aircraft returned to Thessaloniki. He sustained friction burns but was otherwise unharmed. Ryanair confirmed the event and arranged for a replacement aircraft to continue the trip for the remaining passengers.

Bias read (Center): The article covers a non-political aviation incident involving a commercial flight. There is no mention of political figures, policies, or contentious issues. The focus is on safety procedures and technical aspects of air travel, which are not inherently politically charged.
