Passengers stranded overnight as KQ plane stalls on Kisumu runway
Evening flights disrupted and hundreds of passengers stranded at the Kisumu International Airport after an incoming KQ flight stalled on the runway on Thursday, May 30 after a birdstrike.
"The captain said the aircraft couldn’t turn so we had to wait for the ladder and the buses to drive us towards the lounge. All in all, God is good. It was such a scary experience.
We all clapped when it came to a halt. One of us stood up and asked us to clap again for the crew," said Pastor Oddy Oomo, a passenger, on his Facebook page.
Evening flights were disrupted and hundreds of passengers were stranded at the Kisumu International Airport after an incoming Kenya Airways flight stalled on the runway for more than one hour 30 minutes.
According to passengers traveling in the plane, the pilots attempted to land at the airport three times before it stalled on the runway.
