Ryanair passenger’s fury after suitcase with vital medication 'lost' for NINE days

Staff are still searching for a baffled holidaymaker's suitcase which has been missing for NINE days and counting. Rachel Millard's bag did not arrive when she touched down in Milan on a Ryanair flight from Manchester last Saturday, for her first foreign trip with boyfriend Joe Cubbin.

Accountant Rachel, 30, who lives in Didsbury, was forced to go her entire five-day holiday without most of her belongings, including vital medication, as it never followed her to Italy. On the penultimate day of her stay, she was stunned to see her bag in a picture accompanying an M.E.N article about an array of cases that appeared to have been 'abandoned' in the airport's baggage hall.

But after landing back at Manchester Airport, she was told staff still couldn't locate it and she still has still not been reunited with it, nine days after first checking it in. She has now hit out at her treatment claiming the airline are now 'ghosting' her.

Rachel told the MEN: "It was just horrible. My first trip away with my boyfriend and I had virtually nothing with me.

"I did tell them about my medication but I had no idea about how I might go about getting a prescription over there so just had to go without. I also had no underwear, toiletries, make-up gym stuff."

Rachel, originally from Newton-le-Willows on Merseyside, and boyfriend Joe, also 30, used Ryanair's self-service bag drop where you print and attach your own labels before dropping off luggage, prior to boarding her flight from Manchester to Milan at 6:35am last Saturday.

Yet when they arrived in Milan, only Joe's case arrived on the carousel. She reported it missing to staff in Milan who
