Norway proves it is expensive to smoke


A Tunisian man flying Ryanair from Milan to Oslo found out first hand why all the on-board anti smoking signs are so severely worded.


The man’s need for nicotine got the better of him and he sneaked off to the bathroom for a sneaky cigarette. A serious mistake, it turns out.

When the plane landed in the Norwegian capital, the Tunisian was instantly arrested and locked up in a prison cell – where he remained until he was able to rustle up the USD 1,700 fine, Visir.is reported. Once the fine was paid, the man was put on the first plane back to Milan.
