They shared an image of Corden with a red stamp across and the caption, “James Corden BANNED from Ryanair”.

Many social media users took to Twitter and were applauding the budget airline, which has a reputation for humorous posts, for jumping on the bandwagon and banning the Hollywood star. 

The post comes after Corden was recently banned from Balthazar for being rude to staff and leaving a server ‘shaken’ from shouting at her over an incorrect dish. 

The owner of the French brasserie, Keith McNally, took to Instagram about multiple incidents.

He said, “James Corden is a Hugely gifted comedian, but a tiny Cretin of a man. And the most abusive customer to my Balthazar servers since the restaurant opened 25 years ago.”

The owner also said that Corden was “extremely nasty” to the manager and demanded that they get him another round of drinks “this second”.

In a separate incident on October 9, Corden was at the restaurant with his wife, Julia Carey, when she ordered an egg yolk omelette and found egg white mixed in.

A new omelette was prepared and was mistakenly brought out with fries instead of a salad. 

“That’s when James Corden began yelling like crazy to the server: “You can’t do your job! You can’t do your job! Maybe I should go into the kitchen and cook the omelette myself!”

Since the incident, James Corden has called and apologised to the restaurant for being abusive.

“James Corden just called me and apologised profusely,” the restaurant owner wrote in another post.

“I strongly believe in second chances.”

Last month Corden said on BBC Radio 4’s This Culture Life show that because he was from a working-class background, he had to “bully” his way to the top. 

“You’re going to have to get people to budge up to sit at the table if that’s what you want to do. It isn’t going to just be presented to you,” Corden said.
