A family travelling to Turkey for a wedding are keeping their fingers crossed they'll get there in time after their flight was delayed by more than 50 HOURS. Kirsty and Rob Gore and their three kids were due to fly from Manchester Airport to Dalaman at 6.10am on Friday morning.
But after a series of delays that saw them stuck in the airport for 15 hours, included sitting on a grounded plane on the runway for two and half hours, they were finally told their flight had been cancelled. But the next available jet is not due to depart until 10.30am on Sunday.
The family, from Runcorn, had spent £6,500 on an eight night all-inclusive Tui package holiday in Fethiye, for Kirsty's sister's wedding. Now they've been put up in a city centre hotel and face a anxious wait to see if they get to Turkey in time for the ceremony on Monday afternoon. Tui have apologised for the cancellation and say they have offered full refunds to all affected passengers
