Budget carrier Wizz Air is facing a barrage of complaints from angry passengers after a nightmare journey ended with flyers more than 300km from their destination in the middle of the night. Passengers were told the flight would instead land at London Luton, which caused another delay as extra fuel was needed. Shachaf Karvat said on landing there was no help from Wizz Air staff: "Airport security tried to help us and they managed to get us some water and biscuits. "We went through passport control and there were just a few Wizz Air people about. A Wizz Air spokesperson said the airline "sincerely apologises for the inconvenience and disruption" about the rerouting the flight.
