British Supersport champ rages at ‘absolute joke’ Ryanair after charging him to bring trophy home

BRITISH SUPERSPORT star Jack Kennedy was left fuming after Ryanair charged him £75 to bring home a trophy.

The four-time world champion won at Thruxton last weekend to move top of the standings as he chases a fifth title.

But he revealed he had to shell out to bring home his trophy as the Irishman returned home from the UK.

He took to X to vent his frustration alongside a photo as he got on board.

He wrote: "Nice one @Ryanair charging me £75 to bring my trophy on board that I won in the UK and travelling home to Ireland FR667. What an absolute joke."

Fans were divided on social media over the extra fee.

One wrote: "Ryanair would charge you per finger and per toe if they could."

Another added: "You should’ve put it on your head and said it’s a designer hat mate."

A third asked: "Awful, but is it a surprise?"

A fourth commented: "Whats surprising is people travelling Ryanair and still being surprised by the additional charges."

While a fifth wrote: "As much as you're a great sportsman, you aren't different to anyone else.

"It's classed as luggage/extra weight etc.... maybe next time send it by Royal Mail and wait forever for it to turn up ( that's if it does )....."

Ryanair have been contacted for comment.

SunSport has revealed how the iconic Hungarian Grand Prix track looks virtually unrecognisable after being reduced to RUBBLE.

Large parts of the the racetrack have been totally demolished just three weeks after McLaren's Oscar Piastri won his first-ever F1 race there.

The Hungaroring, known for its twisty and tight layout, is poised for significant upgrades under new ownership.

The renovation comes after the track's Formula 1 contract was extended until at least 2032.
