Hi,
Might be nothing but i'm in the air a lot and never seen this before. I've spent the last few hours googling as I was really interested in what goes on behind the scenes.
Tonight my flight from CPH -> EDI had a go around: Easyjet U26984 / EZY78QL
This appeared due to the cabin crew not getting anything ready a summary of my experience i emailled to easyjet head office:
- The cabin crew received a "ten minutes to landing" message over the tannoy from the captain.
- No seatbelt light came on, which i thought was strange
- Coming over Livingston deep into the descent a panicked stewardess came on the tannoy and sped through the fasten seatbelt for landing announcement
- They ran around the cabin, checking - by this time we were getting very close to runway
- Around the same time they sat in their own seats the plan hit full power , began accelerating and turned north to the Firth of Forth.
- Captain came on and stated they had to go-around due to the cabin not being secure, stated it was standard procedure and we'd re join the queue
I'm not in the aviation industry, simply a passenger.
Just wanted to know:
Was i in any additional risk?
Does this happen often?
Is this as unprofessional as it looks from the outside?
