TUI passengers stranded at Rhodes airport for hours after Scots flight axed at check-in

Scots families have been left stranded in Rhodes after TUI axed an Aberdeen flight while passengers queued to check in at the airport. Furious holidaymakers were left to sleep on the floor in Rhodes after the 10.20pm flight was cancelled without any notice on Wednesday night.

Exhausted pensioners and children curled up on the floor for several hours without food or water while waiting for an update for the airline. They were then shipped off to various hotels around the Greek island at around 2am before being told they would be booked on a flight to Glasgow on Thursday night.

Passengers were waiting to check their baggage into the hold, while others were arriving at the airport when the flight was scrapped. Bonnie Keightley and two of her friends were caught up in the delays.
