Flight plight

THE way the airlines are acting is despicable. My flight to Belfast with easyJet was cancelled as I waited in the departure lounge.

I was going to the blessing of my grandson Jack’s wedding. I had missed the wedding in Southampton because I was ill with Covid.

refunds and compensation can never make up for missing a precious family event.

The security waiting time was far

worse because only two of the eight security lanes were manned. After two more hours, we had to be pulled out of the queue because the final call for our plane had just been announced. MICHAEL LYNCHEHAUN,
