An Irish Olympic athlete has posted a scathing criticism about Aer Lingus after he was removed from the plane for having fencing equipment with him.
Arthur Lanigan-O'Keeffe, who will travel to Rio later in the summer for the Olympic games, was hoping to go to a competition as part of his preparations, when he was asked to step off the flight.
The 24-year-old pentathlon athlete then took to Facebook to share his disgust at the situation.
It's fair to say today was a bad day, Thanks #Aerlingus
