Angry holidaymakers have caught on video the moment police were drafted in to tell them the flight they'd already waited eight hours for had been cancelled - and so was their holiday. Officers told the crowd which had gathered around them at Manchester Airport they would not be able to travel to the Greek island of Kos for half term.
The video taken by Jayesh Patel shows one police officer saying: "You won't be going today. But what is happening is this; you are going to be getting a full refund." His words were greeted with ironic jeers by some, while other angry and exhausted passengers shouted at each other to let the officer speak.
"There will also be a 350 euro - per person - compensation and you will get that within 14 days," the officer continued. "You will also get a £200 holiday voucher."
