In what has become more or less a rite of passage for Australian travellers, a group of tourists is stuck in Bali‘s main airport this morning, after almost everything that could conceivably go wrong with their flight went wrong.
Per Nine News reports, the group were on an Air Asia flight from Kuala Lumpur to Coolangatta on Monday, when their plane made an unscheduled stopover in Bali due to a medical emergency.
Later that day, the plane had successfully made it back in the air to resume the trip to Australia, when it was turned around yet again, mid-route, thanks to another sick person.
Another attempt to board the plane was made the next day, but immigration officials stopped it from taking off, due to the fact that nine travellers scheduled to be on board had apparently said “fuck this, we’re out” and failed to show up.
As of today, the group remains in Bali. Kuta they BE any more unlucky?
