Passenger partially sucked from Ryanair plane after window explodes; seeks compensation

A Serbian man narrowly escaped a tragic end when a window next to him exploded mid-flight, partially ejecting him from a Ryanair plane at approximately 20,000 feet. Ljubiša Karovičius, a 61-year-old father of two, was flying from Greece to Germany when the terrifying incident occurred.

He was reportedly asleep when the window blew out. Air currents began to pull him from the aircraft, but his wife, Svetlana, and other passengers managed to grab his legs, preventing him from being fully sucked out.

Following the near-fatal event, Karovičius expected some form of attention from the airline. However, he stated that no Ryanair representative had contacted him directly in the two weeks since the incident. "All we received were emails sent to my son, who booked our tickets," he told the Daily Mail. "They asked if we wanted to change our flight and how I was feeling. But no one from the company contacted me directly – I didn't even receive a phone call to show even a little concern."

Karovičius is now seeking legal counsel to pursue compensation from the Irish airline. He expressed his outrage that Ryanair's only offer after such a dangerous incident was to change his flight date.
