RE: Look what delta can do!

I can’t top either of them but my worst experiences have been with Airtours.
EMA-ACE: The plane laded very late already and we where ready to go, then we get told they need to change a tyre, an eventual 6 hr delay followed
ACE-EMA (The return flight): Took off relatively on time, but had to make a fuel stop in Nantes, France! The captain said that the runway in Lanzarote wasn’t long enough for our MD-83 to take a full load of fuel and as we had strong headwinds we had to stop.

Beleive it or not we decided to give them another go Manchester-Malta.
We were constantly told that it would be 3/4 hour delay, but apparently the plane was still stuck in Cyprus 2 hours into this with some sort of problem. After our party made a few complaints and stated that we wouldn’t be too pleased with flying on one of the Air Atlanta Tristars, we were taxiied to a local hotel for a free meal, just the 7 of us.
We eventually flew out 11 hours later on Britannia (on time), 3 hours ahead of everybody else we found out later.
The return flight was on time 😮 , but the TV’s were broke.
