A horrified mum has told how her family's flight home from holiday descended into a nightmare after two Russian passengers were allowed on without travel documents.
The mistake on the TUI flight back from Mexico was only spotted as the jet taxied to the runway. Immediately turning the jet around, the pilot explained over the PA that the illegal passengers had to be removed.
To make matters worse, Anna-Marie Watters, 54, told how the crew then found a 'suspicious package' onboard which had to be investigated as fellow passengers burst into tears around her.
