Just found this and I thought as there is quite a few of you who frequent NCL I’d share it with you, maybe you can even shed some more light on the situation.
Amazing! 😀

” MYT ought to get their arses into gear ” They are trying to run a business not a charity to start with.Also the amount that the article said the passengers were given is not correct.As we all know the press are not the best at getting the facts right.Not wanting to start an argument but Britannia do not give out £14.00 per person for a two hour delay either. 🙂

£3 is bloody disgusting, MYT ought to get their arses into gear. I got 14 pound (along with every member of my family) off Britannia when we were delayed at NCL, and that was only 2 hours!!!

Damn! The real story would have to be more boring wouldnt it. The exagerrated version is far more interesting 🙂

I’m sure in the bus, there is some sensor that automatically senses a deployed chute, and replaces it immediately. Why not? Everything else in it is done automatically, including landing in trees. :p
LMAO!!!!!!!! good one gd! respect!

Had it confirmed now the pprune event of things is correct.The gril has simply forgotten the door was armed wnt to open it and hey presto the slide gets blown.It does happen a lot more than you would think too.

If it were a Bus, I don’t think fitting a new chute would take that long…if it’s a Boeing then I don’t know..perhaps they didn’t have one at hand

Trying to find out the full details as we speak. But from reading into the article it’s a new crew member who has blown a slide.How i don’t know yet but i will tell all when i know.

LOL, if the FA isn’t ok then it is almost entirely her own fault! Would still like to know what brought it on. 🙂

Interesting story.
I would be interested to know why she was so upset and whether or not she is still flying with MyTravel Airways.. I somehow doubt it!
