The passengers of the Wizz Air flight from Hurghada (Egypt) to London experienced a catastrophic return flight. Just fifteen minutes following the plane took off, it was forced to turn around following a fire alarm sounded.
In this already stressful ordeal, people were left to fend for themselves once they were brought to safety at the Egyptian airport. For more than five hours, according to a passenger’s claims to the Mirror, no information was given, nor was water or food. It was only following a long wait that all the travelers were finally transported to a one-star hotel near the airport.

It was not until 36 hours following their initial flight that people were able to fly back. “Honestly, it was the scariest plane flight I’ve ever done,” said one of the customers affected by this April 22 flight. Others are less virulent with the airline: “Landing safe and sound is the most important thing. I’m grateful for that and wouldn’t complain. »
A spokesperson for Wizz Air confirmed to the British media that “passenger safety is the number one priority. Unfortunately, due to an aircraft fault, the flight in question had to return to Hurghada, Egypt. We understand the distress and inconvenience the disruptions may cause and apologize to all passengers affected. We will always try to find accommodation for passengers whose flight has been canceled or delayed as quickly as possible, but this may take longer than usual if local availability is limited. »
