Holidaymakers were trapped on board the Edinburgh-bound plane on the tarmac in Lanzarote for five hours. The plane, which had been scheduled to depart from the Spanish island at 11.20am, landed 12 hours later in Edinburgh at 11.30pm on Friday night. "It wasn't until we landed in Bordeaux nine hours later that we were offered free water. "A lot of people bought water, juice and food because we had been sitting for hours and were hungry and thirsty. "When we landed in France nine hours later, the pilot said they were going to try and get water and it was eventually handed out."
