'The whole trip is off': Man claims easyJet flight to Munich is cancelled to meet demand for Champions League

A man has slammed easyJet after he was forced to cancel plans for his friend’s 50th birthday party because his flight from Manchester to Munich was cancelled. He claims the cancellation is down to the airline wanting to use the plane to meet demand for the Champions League final.

Andrew Logan, 33, booked his flights from Manchester Airport to Munich in February for Friday, May 27 with a return on the Sunday - the same weekend as Liverpool’s Champions League final against Real Madrid. However, Andrew received an email from the budget airline on Friday (May 6), informing him the flight to Munich had been cancelled.
