I really love to share you with this story , it is our story ( me & my husband ) and out trip from Toronto to Newfoundland .
Well after staying in Toronto for 20 days , it is the time to go back to our home .
Our trip was on Thursday at 12:10 pm , we arrived to the airport at about 10:30 am , and we found that our trip delayed 30 min which is nothing with us , so we get in the airplane at about 12:35 pm , and here we are in the air , normally the duration of the trip takes about 3 hours and a half from Toronto to Newfoundland (St’Johns) .
So when we felt that we arrived St’Johns , we felt like the plane took a u-turn , we did not understand what was going on???? And here we are the pilot spoke to the passengers ( attention dears passengers please , we arrive to St’Johns but we could not land in the airport due to weather problems so we will go back to Halifax and we will know the situation from there , but hopefully we will flight today to St’Johns ) and you hear ahhhhh NOOOO from the passengers , so another hour to go to Halifax (Nova Scotia) , and at about 5pm we landed in Halifax airport , and normally we thought that we will get out from the air plane and get in the airport but no this is the surprise !!!!
The pilot took his way to the gates place and when he arrived one he took time to let us know what is happening!! Then another announcement from the pilot ( attention pleas , well due to the freezing weather there is a problem in this gate but we will go to another gate to let you get out to the airport so please stay in your seat ) .
Well until now it is normal , then the plane took its way to go to another gate , and then it stopped for about 45 min and we did not know what is happing??
And here we are another announcement from the pilot ( attention passengers pleas , well it seems that the airport does not have staff to take care of you so we will stay in the air plane until we have an okay from St’Johns and we will flight to St'Johns ) and here we hear the passengers said ahhhhhhhhhhh come on !!!
Any way , the bad other thing it was that our seat me and my husband was in the last seat of the plane and I was sitting in the middle between my husband and another nervous man .
By that time which was about 5:30pm , the passengers start to use the washroom and they did a long line to get into the washrooms , which were in the last of the plane that means behind us ,and another thing the airplane service only drinks for free , but if you wanna eat you have to pay five dollars , and we have only 5 dollars cash that time so I told my husband to save them for the emergency .
So one hour went then 30 min then we hear the pilot again ( well ….eehhh … passengers .. I am going to tell you about the situations in St’Johns it seems the drive way for the plane is freezing and they are trying to clear it so we will wait in the air plane until we know when we will can flight )
Oh my God , okay but waiting until when ???? a question with out an answer ???
So we waited for another 2 hours and then me and my husband got hungry so we bought a sandwich and we share it together , thanks God for serving the drinks for free .
Well now I will tell you for how long we stayed stuck in the air plane for 5 and a half hours ohhh yes .
Then thanks to them they allowed us to get into the airport after waiting for 5 hours and a half , can you believe it !!!
So we get in the airport , and we could buy food by credit card , so we stayed in the airport for tow hours which mean until 10:30pm .
So we stayed stuck in the airport for 5 hours and a half and then in the airport for 2 hours , then they made an announcement asking us to go back to the air plane .
We were all happy , so we get back in the airplane and after all the passengers took their place and every body is ready to go home and happy, we waited for 30 min and we felt there is another bad thing is coming , and here what the pilot said (attention passengers please , I am afraid to tell u that we have to wait in the air plane for a whole until we know when we will can flight to St’Johns ) and here all the passengers screamed ( cancel the flight cancel the flight ) and again the pilot ( well I can not cancel the flight so thank you for your patient )
Ahh my God , and they put a movie for us to pass the time , but nothing will pass the time and we stayed in the airplane for another 2 hours from 10:30 pm to 12:30 am .
Then the pilot made a last announcement ( attention please , we cancelled the flight , so every body will get out of the plane and call the air Canada to make a re-reservation for tomorrow and have a nice night )
Nice night they took our night , so we are in a strange city , we do not what to do ?
But we found 4 people we met them in the plane they came to us and asked us if we want to share a van with them and go to the down town and stay in a hotel so we agreed because we are so so tired .
And we went to a hotel and it took about 30 min to reach the hotel , so we entered our room at 3:00 am and we slept .
And the next day we took another flight at 4pm and we made it , we are finally home .
Finally we are in our sweet home.
Well this is my story hope u enjoy it !!
