Rosie Connolly has opened up about her horrific flight this morning in the midst of Storm Ali.
The top blogger was on her way home from London Fashion Week, but it quickly turned into a bumpy ride, as the weather took a turn for the worst.
Pilots on the Ryanair flight made two failed attempts to land in Dublin Airport, before heading to Liverpool with a whole host of frightened passengers.

“It was what I can only describe as the most terrifying flight of my life,” said Rosie.
“Terrified, screaming passengers, everyone throwing up… never experienced anything like it.
“We are now in Liverpool but unable to leave the plane due to the airport being full.”
A spokeperson for Ryanair has told us: “This flight from London Gatwick to Dublin (19 Sep) diverted to Liverpool due to extreme winds at Dublin.
“The aircraft landed normally in Liverpool and customers remained on board in order to be able to take up the next available slot. The bars were opened to serve refreshments and the flight returned to Dublin that day.
“Ryanair sincerely apologised to all customers affected by this weather diversion, which was entirely beyond our control.”
We’re glad to hear they’re all safe and well now.
