A family have been left raging after being left to sleep in Edinburgh airport after their flight was aborted
.
"There was a distressed woman shouting and swearing at all the different members of her family then she started throwing the hand luggage around. I flagged it to the staff as I wanted it to get resolved before we got on board so it wouldn't affect the flight. "The fire brigade was there waiting when we landed. Then they followed the plane to an area where it had parked far away from the terminal.
"We got our luggage and the Swissport staff were the only ones around at that time. They told me there were no hotels in Edinburgh and when we looked it up there was - but they would be £600 for the five of us. "My 80-year-old auntie slept on a wooden chair. We were exhausted and broken and nobody was on the ground to check if we are OK.
