A British couple decided to go to Spain's Costa Brava coast with friends to celebrate a birthday.
When the rest of the guests arrived at Barcelona airport, the husband and wife found themselves in Lithuania.
The couple were left in despair when they found themselves 2,500km from their intended holiday destination,the Daily Star reports.
The husband and wife planned to celebrate his birthday on Spain's Costa Brava.
When the rest of their company landed in Barcelona, they flew to Lithuania.
The autistic wife of a British man who suffered an amputation in an accident always relies on assistance at airports when travelling.
They believe that this was the root cause of the error that occurred.
The couple were escorted onto the plane with assurances that the rest of their group was already on board.
When the couple woke up, it turned out that outside the window was not Spain, but Lithuania.
Ryanair had to pay a considerable amount both for a taxi from Lithuania to the Latvian airport and for tourists to stay overnight in a hotel.
