XL Airways stranded hundreds of passengers in Central Florida after filing bankruptcy on Thursday.
A flight carrying Scottish tourists was about to depart from Orlando-Sanford International Airport when their trip was abruptly canceled.
A total of 266 passengers were aboard the XL Airways 767 bound for London-Gatwick Airport.
“We were going through departures. We got onto the plane, and they took us off the plane, and two police cars turned up and stopped the plane from driving off,” Damon Emery said.
“None of us knew what was going on. They didn’t tell us anything. Now they’re trying to say they only got news of this when families from England started ringing up the airport,” Emily Joyca said.
Orlando-Sanford International Airport provided shuttle buses to get the passengers to local hotels for the night.
They were also provided Internet access to try to reschedule their flights.
Many of the passengers said they have travel insurance and should be OK.
