Passengers on a Ryanair flight have taken more than twelve hours to reach Berlin.

The flight bound for Germany was scheduled to take off at 7:40 pm on Thursday and arrive in the German capital around 9:00 pm, but everything went wrong in a matter of seconds. «We boarded half an hour later. Once inside, we were warned over the loudspeaker that the flight would be delayed for two more hours,» one of the passengers told Periódico de Ibiza y Formentera.

In this sense, C. M. stressed that the company offered them to disembark, but without any kind of compensation. «They attributed the delay to different problems, such as the air traffic controllers' strike», she pointed out.

The passengers held on inside the plane, since Raynair promised them that, once they arrived in Germany, the flight had to be diverted to Hannover, which will provide them with a bus to Berlin.

It should be remembered that Hannover is almost 300 kilometers from Berlin. «The worst thing was not the detour. The worst thing was that we were abandoned in this city. We arrived in the early hours of the morning and had no transport,» the passengers said.

Those affected, including children and families, had to go to the Hanover train station in order to travel to Berlin. Due to this odyssey, the passengers arrived in the German capital at 9:00 a.m. this Friday, twelve hours of agony, desperation and frustration on the part of all the passengers of this Ibiza-Berlin flight.
