The children and elderly among those waiting to go to Corfu were sleeping on the floor, while the adults waited nervously for something to happen – for a day and a half.
130 passengers waited for 33 hours at the Hungarian airport, because the plane, of an airline from Prague, going to Corfu was late by a day and a half, according to szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu.
The unfortunate passengers waited at Ferenc Liszt Airport, feeling angry and disappointed, and without anything to eat or drink. The children slept on blankets which were placed on the floor.
According to the passengers, the departure time of the plane changed at least four times. Initially, it was supposed to leave at 2:30 PM from Budapest, but the time of departure was still uncertain the following evening.
A man filmed as outraged people demanded the workers of the airport to call someone who could fix this unpleasant situation. According to the maker of the video, there were children and elderly people among them, who had to sleep on the floor because they were so tired, while the parents and adults were constantly on edge. They had nothing to eat or drink either.
If the airline cancels the flight the passengers are owed a refund. They are also provided reimbursement of expenses during the delay.
