Sir, – Statistically it appears there is a much greater chance of being healed while flying, regardless of whether it is Ryanair or EasyJet. In fact it is almost a 50 per cent chance.
On a flight from Belfast to Alicante on February 9th, three passengers required “special assistance”. On arrival in Alicante, I was the only one left requiring such assistance. On the return flight a week later, six required assistance, but by the time we landed in Belfast, only three appeared not to have been healed.
Similarly, last September, flying to Knock from Alicante, the two who required assistance on to the plane, reduced to one by the time the flight landed.
On both these occasions I was amazed at the fantastic recovery as I watched those who had been unable to board the flight unaided, being the first people to sprint off the plane. So the good news is: expect to be healed when flying. – Yours, etc,
