The Independent reports that there was a punch up and vomiting on one of their Heathrow bound flights after a series of technical faults caused delays and an unpleasant stop over in Riyadh.
BA has apologised to Heathrow-bound customers who twice had to return to a baking-hot Saudi Arabian airport due to a faulty plane.
There were reports of passengers being sick and of fights breaking
out as one BA worker tried to deal with more than 300 passengers back at
Riyadh airport.
Boeing 747 first had to turn back to Riyadh on Wednesday due to a problem with the wing flaps. Then when the same plane took off yesterday following repairs the same problem reoccurred and the aircraft had to fly back to Riyadh.
One passenger, Dean Jones, told the online Daily Mail that in the terminal at Riyadh there was “mayhem” as just one BA worker tried to deal with more than 300 passengers while other ground crew “hid' in a back office.
He went on: “Fights broke out and the military turned up.
“We were furious they put us back up in the plane when they knew there was a serious problem. BA customer relations have been useless.”
