The cancellation of a Brussels Airlines flight from Mallorca delays the return of Belgian vacationers to Brussels

Share

Brussels Airlines flight SN3766 from Palma de Mallorca to Brussels scheduled for this Saturday 20 July at 17:20 has been cancelled. The announcement was made after two hours of waiting. A problem had been detected at the wing of the aircraft, an Airbus A320 registered OO-SNI, during its landing on the Spanish runway and could not be repaired immediately.

According to Sudpresse, 180 passengers were then left stranded at the airport; they did not get any drink during their long wait before the announcement of the cancellation of their flight. Then they had to wait one and a half more hours to retrieve their luggage. Brussels Airlines booked them one night at a local hotel, where they were driven by bus at 22:00.

A flight to Belgium was specially chartered this Sunday at 09:00 to bring the vacationers back to Brussels.

The Airbus A320 OO-SNI returned empty to Brussels this Sunday 21 July as SN9902 (dep. 14:43, arr. 16:42).
