Bristol Airport: Couple forced to sleep on conveyor belts amid Ryanair 'nightmare'

A couple say they have been left traumatised after they were forced to sleep on Lanzarote Airport's conveyor belts. They claim passengers were 'deserted' when their flight was delayed by more than 20 hours, being reportedly left with no water and food.

Sam Johns, 31, and his partner Danielle Downing, 30, flew from Bristol Airport to Lanzarote last Thursday, March 9, and were due to return on Sunday, March 12. However, their flight at 6.20pm was delayed and then eventually cancelled due to bad weather conditions, reports Devon Live.

Young children and elderly people were among those who had to sleep on concrete floors and conveyor belts, according to the couple.
