Police officers were called by the captain of a TUI flight after passengers were "abandoned" on a plane.
The plane was stranded on the runway for three hours and holidaymakers were stuck on tarmac before they were escorted off at Manchester Airport on Sunday. After an initial delay on the TOM2106 to Tenerife, families were then stuck for three more hours on the plane, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Footage shows the pilot telling stranded passengers "Swissport have abandoned us". Adam Wyczalkowski, 22, who was to go on holiday with his four friends to the sunny island for a four-night break, said travellers were stuck on the tarmac until 10pm when police arrived to help disembark the aircraft after passengers had become disruptive.
