The entire Boeing just for one man. Germans revealed why he flew completely alone

A deportation flight from Germany to Bulgaria carried only one illegal immigrant, costing taxpayers over €60,000. Critics argue this highlights failures in Germany's return policy. The individual, who entered the EU via Bulgaria, will be assessed by Bulgarian authorities for further deportation to Lebanon. In 2025, North Rhine-Westphalia rented eleven planes for deportations, often with very few passengers. Many deportees resist boarding, complicating the process. The case of a Syrian man, who committed a violent crime after failing to be deported, underscores the risks of ineffective deportation policies.
