easyJet delay sees teachers miss work after being stranded in Portugal

A hen party which included a number of teachers endured a "horrendous" experience when their easyJet flight home from Portugal was delayed by more than 17 hours.

Ffion Williams described how the party underwent a series of delays after they were due to fly to Bristol airport from Faro on Sunday, June 5 at 10.10pm. The 32-year-old said their flight did not depart until 2.30pm the following day (June 6).

It meant many of the group were unable to make it back to work on Monday following the Jubilee bank holiday weekend. Ffion claimed that for the duration of the delay - including overnight - the party had no choice but to camp on the airport floor.
