A dad has told of his family's "day of hell" stuck in an airport that ended with a cancelled flight. David Holmes and his family set off for their break in Portugal on Monday lunchtime.
But after arriving at Belfast International Airport at 1.30pm it took around six hours of waiting around with their 17-month-old daughter before they were told the flight would not be going ahead. The family is now preparing to fly out three days later.
This time they will fly with a different airline, switching from easyJet to Jet2. But their new break is costing them over £700 more than the one they had planned.
