The A180 does it again....
Second air turn back by the same aircraft to HKG in 24hours. Same gear door problem.

And now the crew are on their second unplanned overnight in HKG. Suitcases still in BKK. Same knickers. Poor girls. And guys too I guess.

Wow...A 380 load of pax accommodated for two nights. I guess we can kiss this year's bonus goodbye.

A tad melodramatic, don't you think?

Oh dear....an obviously facetious bit of hyperbole and the name-slinging begins immediately.

You do have to laugh at some people's reactions

Pursers last flight. So I think we can all blame her. Best we take the expense from her Husband's pay.

A few unhappy campers there huh?? Be glad your not a "Yank", they would really begin the slagging...

People like to complain, it makes them feel sophisticated and important, like this gentleman:
