A GROUP of schoolies flying to the Gold Coast this morning found their holiday steaming up faster than they could have ever hoped when the air conditioning failed, turning their Virgin Blue flight into a sauna and grounding the plane.
The passengers were aboard flight DJ 979 waiting on the tarmac in Melbourne for a scheduled 6.55am takeoff when the temperature started to rise to an estimated 40C.
