An influencer was left livid after she wasn't let onto her flight as she turned up late to the departure gate. <a href="https://vt.co/lifestyle/flight-attendant-reveals-the-types-of-shoes-you-should-never-wear-on-an-airplane">Flying</a> can be stressful at the best of times, and if you're a classic "airport dad" like I am, you have to find your departure gate at least two hours before you jet off. The rest of the time is spent eating and drinking while staring down the departures board, willing it to make a change - and of course, being the first to react when your flight is called. If these simple yet vital steps are employed, the chances of missing a flight are slim to none - but one former UK Love Island star had other hindrances to deal with. Taking to her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/missmalinsara/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Instagram</a> story, Malin Andersson blasted "rude" Ryanair staff after they told her that her gate was closed after she arrived. <img class="size-full wp-image-1263224256" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/08/Screenshot-2023-08-08-20.03.32.webp" alt="" width="322" height="512" />[[imagecaption|| Andersson blasted the airline on her Instagram story.

They [Ryanair] were really, really harsh, no sympathy - Ryanair are absolute bulls***." Andersson was due to fly to Sweden on a family holiday but was delayed getting to the gate as she had to change her daughter's diaper - which seems like the right thing to do, because who would want to let a child sit in their mess for the duration of a flight, let alone have the other passengers smell it? To add to the frustration, Andersson could see other passengers still lining up to get on the plane, so couldn't work out why she wasn't allowed to join them. "The plane was still there on the ground - we could see people boarding it but they wouldn't let us through. It was so bizarre," she said. The Love Island star added: "I've never known anything like it, the woman at the gate, gate 33, was so rude and so blunt. We were like three minutes late - I had to change Xaya's nappy before she did a poo. So, yeah, Ryanair you're cr**." Andersson posted a follow-up video where she was in a hotel airport with her daughter, where they were hoping they would be accepted on a later flight to Sweden. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Cvxk0mnr_Q8]] A spokesperson for Ryanair told the Sun: "It is each passenger’s responsibility to present at the boarding gate before it closes (as detailed on their boarding pass). "Should this passenger have presented at the boarding gate desk before it closed, she would have boarded this flight from Stansted to Gothenburg (8 Aug) alongside the 177 passengers who did present at the gate on time." This feels like a tricky one to call, because although airlines have strict policies to adhere to to ensure the airport runs smoothly - you also can't control when an infant is going to need to do their business.
