A group of Edinburgh festival-goers claim to have been stranded in Barcelona airport with no ‘food or water’ after their flight back to the capital was continuously delayed.
Mhairi Robertson, 25, had attended OffSonar in the Catalonian city along with friends Rachel Agnew, 29, Caitlin Kurtto, 24, Mark Smith, 23, Rowan Newlands, 22 and Sam Shepherds, 24. The music loving pals had a fantastic experience at the festival but their trip took a turn for the worse when their Ryanair flight was delayed on Monday night (June 19).
Mhairi says that their situation snowballed with mass confusion at the airport leading to people sleeping on the floor. She alleges that hotels had been provided for some passengers but that local taxi drivers had refused to take them to the accommodation or warned the group that they could potentially miss their rearranged flight due to the distance between the airport and their hotel.
