Delayed for 38 hours at aberdeen
Any news what airline all spread over news this morning only info plane went tech on Thursday early hours of morning departed Friday 2043pm very unhappy passengers
1) If you had, in fact, read the news, you would know the answer to your first question.
2) Ever heard of punctuation?
3) Not for the first time, I have to question what people consider to be "Rumours & News". Tech delays happen. They are a fact of life. The particularly long delay in this case hardly makes it newsworthy.

I think most passengers would disagree................... 38 hours for heavens sake - not in some third world hell hole but in the UK
Very bad PR

The main problem is.....
.......not so much the tech delay but the apparent inability/unwillingness of Thomson management to communicate with its paying customers.
Having been in a similar situation with Thomson earlier this year not even the worker bees/reps at the airport knew what was happening. The groundhandlers "knew" what was likely to happen but could not say anything/ make announcements until authorised by the management of Thomson.
It was a protracted struggle to get compensation because procedural obstacles kept cropping up. One had the feeling that the mind set was "let's kick it into the long grass for as long as possible and maybe they'll get peed off and go away".

BTW the airline with the FP flight no. is French and their service is not bad. (Used to be called Europe Air Post but are now ALS orASL)
