Air Canada passengers were stuck on tarmac for 7.5 hours due to storm AirCanada
Jason Burrows boarded Air Canada flight AC618 from Toronto to Halifax on Friday evening for a scheduled departure of 7:45 p.m., although the snow storm had already started around 6 p.m.
Unfortunately for Burrows and his family - which includes two children and two seniors, he claims they would proceed to be stuck on the tarmac for close to 7.5 hours, with minimal snacks or drinks before eventually being brought back to the gate after the flight was cancelled.— PompeyFever2020 Burrows emailed blogTO from the airplane around five hours after his scheduled departure, calling the experience a mess.
Burrows told blogTO that the plane had to get de-iced, but when restarting the engines, one of the engines failed to start and took out the power and lights inside the cabin. "We were provided with cups of water and mini granola bars after the 3 hour mark. Cups of orange juice came out around hour 6."
