Man endures 36-hour bus ride after flight cancellation due to air traffic control issues

Trending Now

Krystian Moson found himself in a predicament that would test anyone's patience. Initially scheduled for a two-hour flight, Moson had to resort to a grueling 36-hour bus journey due to a last-minute flight cancellation.

The cancellation was the result of a 'technical issue' with air traffic control, affecting over 1,200 flights during a busy Bank Holiday weekend.

Moson took to TikTok to share his experience, explaining that he had to take a 24-hour bus to Amsterdam, followed by another bus to England.

Despite the inconvenience, he maintained a positive outlook, describing the situation as 'another adventure.'

The reason for his urgency to return home was work commitments, as he had planned a long weekend over the Bank Holiday.

The National Air Traffic Services (NATS) later issued an apology for the disruption, stating that the technical issue had been resolved but that it would take time for normal flight operations to resume.
