Tinkerbell and Bob the Builder taken off flight

A man dressed as Tinkerbell was removed from a flight at Stansted Airport due to “disruptive” behaviour.

Two men on the Ryanair plane to Krakow were removed by police ahead of departure yesterday morning.

On Twitter, a passenger said that an officer “adjusted the man’s wings”, and the second man, dressed as Bob the Builder, was “exceptionally well behaved”.

A Ryanair spokesman said: “This is exactly why we are calling for significant changes to prohibit the sale of alcohol at airports.”
