Three teenagers have been left "stranded" in Benidorm after their TUI flight was cancelled - leaving one mother in terror. Ryan Egginton-Pope, 18, Brandon Burton and Ben Cowley, both 19, were on their first trip away and were due to fly home from Alicante to Manchester Airport at 7am on Tuesday, May 31, the Echo was told.
The three friends, all from the Wirral, had a “great time” staying at the Hotel Port Fiesta Park, spending their week abroad parasailing, jet biking and partying. However, at 8.45pm the evening before their trip home, they received a text from TUI saying their flight had been cancelled.
Ryan, Brandon and Ben were told not to take the transfer to the airport and to wait for information. They heard nothing from TUI and claim they were left stranded in Benidorm with no hotel room, money or assistance from the TUI team.
