A passenger on a Ryanair flight departing from Thessaloniki, Greece, was partially sucked out of a window that dislodged shortly after takeoff. The individual described hearing a noise resembling a tire bursting during the incident. Because the passenger was wearing his seatbelt, he was not fully ejected from the aircraft. This event occurred during the flight's initial phase, highlighting the critical role of safety restraints during the unexpected failure of the aircraft window.
