Posted here as it is not really Florida trip planning, but it could impact on the Florida flights as the aircraft is still tech.
Those poor passengers!
From Irish news
"Almost 30 passengers arrived at Shannon airport this morning after being stranded in New York this weekend.
Globespan flight 201 from New York to Knock airport has been delayed indefinitely since last Thursday due to an 'engineering problem.'
A handful of the flight's 240 passengers arrived this morning after booking an alternative flight home through Delta Airlines at their own expense.
AdvertisementOne of the group bought tickets for ten others on his credit card as they could not afford the cost themselves.
Passengers described how they were shunted from the airport to hotels and back again since Thursday evening and were given different reasons for repeated delays of the Globespan flight.
Some passengers told RTÉ's Morning Ireland that Ireland West Airport should review its association with Globespan in the light of their experience.
Another Globespan flight due into Knock yesterday morning, GSM 736 from Boston, was cancelled and the return leg of that flight (GSM 735A) has been delayed indefinitely."
