EgyptAir Passenger Files Lawsuit After Overhead Luggage Causes Severe Injuries

Jarek Neczypor claims negligence by EgyptAir after a bag fell on his face, causing lasting physical and emotional trauma.

Jarek Neczypor, a 31-year-old from Connecticut, was injured on an EgyptAir flight when a bag fell from the overhead compartment.
The incident occurred on August 17 during a flight from Cairo to JFK Airport in New York.
Neczypor suffered a cracked tooth and severe facial injuries, and later experienced neck and back pain from a defective seat.
He has filed a federal lawsuit against EgyptAir, seeking unspecified damages for pain, anguish, and mental suffering.
The lawsuit alleges EgyptAir's negligence in ensuring passenger safety, as airlines are typically liable for such injuries unless due to passenger negligence.
