Brit family experience 'inhumane' scenes as easyJet flight from Turkey cancelled

A family has told of "inhumane" scenes at a Turkish airport of people sleeping on the floor who felt "trapped" after a cancelled flight and couldn't afford to buy replacements.

Michael Tierney said he and his family, including nine-month-old Ralphie, were left stranded in Antalya, Turkey, after their easyJet flight was cancelled and they had to fork out £2,500 for new flights and hotels.

They were due to fly back last Tuesday, May 31, but were told at the airport that their plane was not leaving and no alternatives were given to families, reported the Manchester Evening News.
