OK, let me first clarify (for non-native, English audio system) that the article headline is a (dated) phrase utilized in English to imply “it is simply not acceptable.”
Tempers had been flaring within the Aeropuerto Federico García Lorca Granada-Jaén due to overbooking on a Vueling flight that left 30 passengers grounded for twelve hours.
After they did arrive at their vacation spot (Barcelona) it was not till previous midnight whereas they need to have arrived within the early afternoon.
Now the factor is that this was not the primary time this had occurred however reasonably the second time this week as on the tenth there was an identical scenario when passengers on two flights to Palma arrived 5 hours late.
On this newest case, the flight ought to have left at 12.50h on Sunday the sixteenth however some passengers realised that they couldn’t e-book their seat quantity through on-line, so that they turned up with loads of time to spare – a crass error contemplating the delay that awaited them.
Passengers who flip as much as verify in had been knowledgeable that the plane on its method was a lot smaller than the one initially scheduled, due to this fact some passengers must stay behind. One passenger was suggested by the charter-company workers to verify their baggage in, simply in case they may squeeze them on. If not, then their baggage can be taken off and loaded onto the following out there flight for Barcelona.
Ultimately, after all, this passenger, together with 29 others, was left behind. Then got here 14.30h once they got a coupon to alternate for “breakfast”. The cash, supplied was a little bit of joke: 3.75 euros – strive getting breakfast for 3.75 in an airport!
The constitution firm, Vueling cut up the deserted 30 into two teams: one left at 15.30h for Málaga from the place they caught a flight to Barcelona arriving at 21.00h, while the opposite group was knowledgeable that they’d be placed on a direct flight leaving at 22.45h. If that was not dangerous sufficient, this flight really left with a 30-minute delay!
