Ryanair trolled a man on social media after he proposed to his girlfriend on one of the European low-cost carrier's flights.

Lee Parsons and Leah Louise King were aboard a Ryanair flight to Spain on August 6 when Parsons decided to pop the question, per a story published in the Daily Mail on Wednesday.

"Proposed to Leah on a @Ryanair flight with her family there. Luckily she said Yes," Parsons wrote, recounting the proposal in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Monday.

The airline's X account responded to Parsons' post on Tuesday, where it teased him and his fiancée.

"Leah, blink twice for random seat allocation," Ryanair wrote in its post.

The budget airline's reply also drew multiple responses from other people on X, who poked fun at Ryanair's fees for extra services.

"No free champagne for the beautiful couple?" a person asked the carrier.

"Are you new here," Ryanair replied.

"Did they charge you extra?" another person asked.

"Proposal fee," the airline responded.

Jokes aside, the budget airline did chip in with the proposal. Parsons told the Daily Mail that the crew was very helpful and even gifted the couple two complimentary bottles of wine.

Some people have asked Parsons on X if he was paid by the airline.

"I wish, wouldn't say no to free flights to be fair though," Parsons said in his reply.

Representatives for Ryanair did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider sent outside regular business hours.
