Passengers stranded after problems ground Jetstar flight
Budget airline Jetstar has had to cancel its first Melbourne-to-Honolulu flight because of technical problems.
Passengers were stranded at Melbourne airport for several hours last night before being told the flight was off.
Jetstar say the problem has been addressed and the 270 passengers flew out of Tullamarine this morning after staying in hotels overnight.
But disgruntled passenger Christopher Montebello says passengers were kept in the dark about why the flight was cancelled.
"I'm disappointed in the way that people were treated," he said.
"We spent two-and-a-half hours waiting for the plane, there was some sort of technical problem, then from the technical problem there was no answer.
"People need to know what's going on, not ferried and pushed and shoved through the lobbies, in and out of international services - we don't need all that."
Ahh You gota love it!! Super start there Mr Joyce!
