Two hundred Czech tourists bound for Turkey were forced to spend the night at Ostrava airport after their flight was cancelled due to technical problems. The flight from Brno to Antalye was making a scheduled stop over at Ostrava airport when Czech Airlines (ČSA) staff announced a several-hour-long delay for technical reasons. When the flight failed to leave at the scheduled hour for a second time some of the tourists said they were no longer willing to make the journey. ČSA staff are dealing with the problem. The ctk news agency reports that on Friday ČSA was forced to cancel a flight bound for Brussels due to technical problems.
