Plane faults ground passengers
Jet2.com aircraft
HUNDREDS of holidaymakers faced delays this weekend after two Jet2 aircraft broke down.
Passengers expecting to fly from Blackpool Airport to Alicante were transferred to Leeds/Bradford Airport on Thursday due to a technical error.
And around 150 tourists in Tenerife faced delays of more than 24 hours after the plane due to fly them back to Blackpool also reported technical problems.
A spokesman said: “Three coach loads of passengers had to be taken to Leeds/Bradford airport as the plane they were due to board went tech.
“For some reason they were flown back into Leeds/Bradford and had to be driven back into the Fylde coast.
“Passengers in Tenerife had to stay in a hotel overnight and were due to leave on Saturday.”
