300 passengers suffer in Dhaka United flight schedule collapses

DHAKA: More than 300 passengers of United Airways endured sufferings at Dhaka airport from Sunday night due to a flight schedule disaster of the private airline.
According to United Airways officials, they had to cancel two international flights from Sunday night to Monday noon for technical glitches. Oman bound flight No. 4h583 and Malaysia bound flight no.573 were also rescheduled, they added.

Passengers, however, rebuffed the technical disputes as wisecrack excuse by United Airways officials and alleged it’s a regular excuse of the private flight hauler.

The passengers faced untold sufferings remaining stranded at the airport for more than 13 hours.

Later, armed police battalion (APBN) and Civil aviation accommodate 170 tired passengers at a hotel adjacent to airport amid pressures.

APBN Senior ASP Ehteshamul Haque confirmed the matter to banglanews.
