On Friday consumer watchdog Codacons said it would be taking legal action against the Irish low-cost carrier Ryanair after passengers travelling from Denmark to Rome on Thursday reported receiving insect bites during their flight. In a statement the organisation said it would be filing a complaint with the Rome prosecutor\'s office and asking for compensation on behalf of the travellers. Passengers had to receive medical treatment on arriving in the capital as a result of soreness and itching caused by the bites, thought to be the work of ticks. The plane was subsequently grounded and disinfested before resuming service on Friday morning.
