A woman was thrown off an easyJet flight after she had a seizure – despite paramedics saying she was fit to fly.
Helen Stephens was travelling to a friend’s wedding in Greece on a flight on Wednesday when she had a seizure before the plane took off from Gatwick.
The 30-year-old said though the seizure lasted “seconds”, and paramedics who attended the aircraft cleared her to fly, the airline made her leave the flight.
