While everyone was in place in the aircraft, the pilot made a special announcement: “Thank you all for coming today. As there are many of you, the plane is quite heavy. The weight of the plane, combined with a fairly short runway and unfavorable conditions on the departure runway, makes the plane too heavy to take off,” he says, to the general surprise of the travellers. The announcement was filmed by one of the passengers and shared on social media.
19 voluntary passengers
He then adds that he “discussed with the operational team” and that the only way to solve the problem “is to make the plane a little lighter”. To do this, he announces that he is looking for 20 volunteers to get off the plane. He supports his request by guaranteeing a sum of 500 euros per voluntary passenger, allocated by easyJet as a “financial bonus”.
