Passenger Paul Keegan said everyone was " tired and upset" after he waited five hours to board a flight.
Mr Keegan, who was flying to Dublin with his son, described The Airport as " one of The Most chaotic in the world".
He told people were " screaming, annoyed and frustrated" with problems first beginning on Wednesday night.
" I felt quite sorry for the staff because people were being abusive and loud. This place is never enjoyable, " he added.
Mr Keegan said he managed to finally board a flight after The Captain Waited For passengers and told them she was not prepared to leave anyone behind.

It was difficult to see where the back of The Line was as it snaked around the Car Park Three Times .
People had been Out There for More Than an hour before even joining the queue inside.
Mike Wood was delayed for two hours trying to make his connection through Heathrow Airport to Chicago.
He Said he was " absolutely frustrated" and The Experience had " put him off travelling completely".
" Our flight has been held because of the numbers of passengers stuck before security, " he added.
" The Airport must have known months ahead how volumes of people were increasing after lockdown. "
A spokesman for The Airport said the " rapid recovery of international travel" meant it had been " more difficult to predict passenger volumes".
" We would like to apologise to those impacted by The Challenges and assure them We Are doing all we can to rectify The Situation , " he added.
The Airport urged those travelling to arrive at the earliest recommended time by their airline.
