Brits stuck for two hours outside Amsterdam airport due to half term holiday chaos

British holidaymakers were stuck outside Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport for two hours with flights setting off without passengers who were in the long queues.

The queues stretched from outside the building through to security while the airport blamed 'staff shortages' for the extensive delays. Passengers claimed they were left waiting around for two hours while spending an extra hour in various lines once they were inside the terminal.

EasyJet customers in the queue were already facing additional delays after their Saturday flights were cancelled because of "IT issues". Passengers flying into bristol claimed they were forced to leave without all passengers on board which further dragged the delays as hold baggage was unloaded.
