Malta: ‘Missing’ charter flight leaves 280 passengers stranded

Some 280 Maltese passengers, mostly young footballers, who were supposed to leave Malta for Denmark on Friday morning, have been told not to turn up at the airport as their charter flight had been cancelled.

Hundreds of footballers from the nurseries of Pieta, Ħamrun and Birkirkara were due to participate in the Dana Cup in Denmark.

“We were supposed to leave at 10 am and all was supposed to be ok. However, earlier this morning we were informed that our chartered flight was cancelled,” an angry parent told Times of Malta.
