Moscow-Antalya flight detained for more than a day in Vnukovo

Passengers of the Turkish Airlines flight from Moscow to Antalya cannot fly from Vnukovo Airport for the second day. The reason for the delay was a technical malfunction of the aircraft, according to the Telegram channel “Caution, Moscow”.

According to tourists, flight TK3071 was scheduled to depart on October 10 at 13:10. That morning, the sky over Moscow was temporarily closed, but by the scheduled departure time, the restrictions had already been lifted. Despite this, the departure was postponed first to 16:30 on October 11, and then to 19:30. Later, the exact time of departure was again unknown.

During the wait, passengers were placed in the hotel. On the afternoon of October 11, at about 16:00, a bus came for them, but the trip to the airport was canceled. Tourists were told they had to stay at the hotel until 22:00.

According to the press service of Vnukovo, the plane will not be able to go with passengers even after eliminating the malfunction. After the repair, the board will depart without tourists, who will be distributed on other flights.

Vacationers, according to them, did not explain the reasons for the constant transfers and did not tell the exact time of departure.
