what happens if a friend cancels after booking a flight

We’ve been planning this summer trip for months—four of us, all excited to finally get away together. After lots of back and forth, we booked our return flight from Frankfurt Hahn to London Stansted with Ryanair. I handled the tickets, so everyone just sent me their share and I booked all four seats on my app. But now, one of my friends has to drop out last minute. He’s not worried about the money, but I’m left with an extra ticket in my app and only three of us actually flying back. I’m honestly a bit nervous about showing up at the airport with one empty seat on our booking. I’ve heard stories about airlines getting fussy over group bookings not matching up, and I really don’t want any drama at the gate. Ryanair isn’t exactly known for being flexible, and I can’t even figure out if I can cancel just his ticket or if it’ll mess up the rest of our booking. Has anyone else dealt with this kind of situation? I just want to make sure we don’t run into any surprises or get stuck with extra fees just because someone couldn’t make it. It’s frustrating when plans change, especially after all the effort we put into coordinating this trip. I wish airlines made it easier to handle these things without all the stress. #travelproblems #airlinetrouble #grouptravel #Travel
