Relatives' party of 9 report big delay at Milan Malpensa with Alexandair en route Zakynthos to Manchester early Thursday 11th August.
Apparently, engine fire caused full emergency landing + evacuation, and then big wait with no contact from Alexandair, who couldn't be raised by either pax or Manchester Airport.
Arrived back Friday morning on 'Hungarian' aircraft - but luggage still somewhere else.
Story of delays to outbound pax at Manchester in Manchester Evening News and on BBC-TV North West, but no further details.
Passenger postings make interesting reading for business supposed to cherish its SLF customers. Apparently, many gave up and went home.
Info appreciated re airline and incident.
