Edinburgh passengers demand compensation from easyJet after flight hit by lightning

A husband and wife who were due to fly back to Edinburgh from Poland are demanding that EasyJet compensate them after their flight was cancelled.

James, 75, and Margaret Digance, 74, were due to fly back from Krakow to Edinburgh on April 14 but their flight was cancelled after the plane was reportedly struck by lightning and had to be repaired back in the capital.

They said that they were left in the dark by EasyJet as they searched for answers at 10pm on the Friday evening - staff reportedly told them the next flight would be on the following Monday 17.
