A Ryanair flight from Toulouse to London departed with about 150 passengers missing the boarding gate due to border-control queues.
Ryanair said the flight did not leave passengers behind; delays were due to border-control staff shortages at Toulouse.
The incident occurred amid the rollout of the Entry/Exit System (EES), which slows processing at busy European airports.
Passengers described the airport scene as chaotic, with no clear queue organization at the time of boarding.
A Ryanair staff member reportedly tried to manage the queue but could hardly be heard.
The flight's departure from Toulouse occurred on May 30, with border delays impacting multiple travelers.
Other reports noted similar border delays affecting flights into the UK and Milan due to EES issues.
Daily Mail Travel notes the ongoing impact of EES on European travel amid rising demand.
Ryanair confirmed that all passengers who were at the gate when boarding closed were accommodated and travelled without incident.
