Man kicked off flight for wearing too many clothes

A British man has taken to Twitter after claiming he was kicked off a flight for wearing too many clothes.

Ryan Carney Williams was travelling home to the UK after a holiday in Iceland, when he decided to try and avoid paying for excess baggage by piling all his clothes on instead.

Unfortunately for Ryan, British Airways staffers didn’t take too kindly to his attempts to get out of paying more, and kicked him off the flight.

“Being held at Iceland Keflavik airport because I had no baggage put all the clothes on and they still won't let me on. Racial profiling? Or..." Ryan tweeted.

Ryan also claimed he was ‘arrested and maced’ during the 11 January incident.

While there's no confirmation about his allegations, British Airways do claim he was prevented from flying for being rude - and security was called.

Ryan later tried to get an Easyjet flight home the next day, but was “offloaded” from the flight after the airline heard what had happened to him with BA.

While Ryan later claimed he couldn’t afford the $155 excess baggage fee “as a result of being left homeless in Iceland for over a week”, British Airways isn’t backing down from their decision.

“We give our customers a wide range of fares to choose from to meet their needs,” a British Airways spokesperson told the Washington Post.

“We explained our policy to our customer, and offered him an alternative flight to London.”
