Couple spend 'nightmare' night in Barbados bus stop after Love Holidays error

A couple were forced to spend the night in a Barbados bus stop after a travel agent mix-up meant they were barred from boarding their flight home.

Delivery driver Darryl Morrey and his NHS nursing assistant partner Rebecca had spent a week in an all-inclusive hotel on the Caribbean island with 20 friends and relatives for his mum's £30,000 wedding. They had splashed out £2,800 on the trip of a lifetime which had been paid off monthly. But when the pair arrived at Bridgetown airport to fly back to Manchester, check-in staff told them they had no record of their booking.

Despite 50 frantic calls to their travel agent Love Holiday's emergency number, the Aer Lingus plane jetted off without them at 6.20pm on Wednesday (April 6).
