Ryanair passengers who were returning to Stansted from Murcia were mortified when they were told there is to be no toilet paper on their 3 hour flight.
The airline announced the news during the safety demonstration where they were also told that there would too be no milk on the flight.
Passenger Shaun O'dea, told the Sun "Everyone has horrified looks on their faces; to be able to go to the toilet is a basic need."
"It really was appalling!"
A spokesperson for Ryanair has told the Daily Mail "This is very rare and regrettable stock shortage that was caused by the failure of our handling agents in Murcia to deliver toilet rolls and milk sachets that were ordered on the turnaround in Murcia"
They continued by saying "Our crew explained to the passengers that we wished to prioritise an on time departure for Stansted rather then wait for these items to be delivered and cause a significant ATC delay for all our customers."
"Our passengers were very understanding and we apologised sincerely to them for any inconvenience caused"

VIDEO Oakland-bound Hawaiian Airlines flight 24 makes scary landing in Maui
Flight 24 left Kahului Airport at 11:18 a.m. heading for Oakland, but after 10 minutes, the flight crew declared an emergency.
Hawaiian Airlines said an odor of fumes could be smelled in the cabin of the plane, while the Federal Aviation Administration said the smell was detected in the cockpit.
Ultimately, the pilot returned to Kahului.
A passenger on that flight told KHON2 that soon after the plane took off, it “was doing weird stuff. It didn’t seem to be going up and leveling off. It seemed we only got up and then come back down again. We were back below the clouds, which seemed weird it would happen. It banged a couple ways here and there in an odd way. It started becoming apparent that something was going on.
“About eight minutes total into the flight, the pilot came on, he sounded really nervous. Everybody on the flight was looking at each other. He was doing his best, and in hindsight did a great job. But he was nervous, stuttering a little bit. He said we’d be back on the ground in 10 minutes. … We just were blind at that point. Pretty soon, stewardesses went down the aisles, looking into the compartments because we could smell smoke. Something was burning.”
“You could just smell a little bit of smoke coming up. I was in the first class cabin and didn’t really smell very much until right after we landed then we started to smell it, but people mid-flight were coughing,” said passenger Sharlene Harper.
