T’way Air Flight Delayed 11 Hours After Pilot Lost His Passport

Pilots have to undergo airport screening just like everyone else, and that means bringing along the appropriate travel documents. The airline managed to arrange a replacement passport for the pilot, but not before passengers were already heavily inconvenienced.

The airline issued a statement saying, “We are currently reviewing disciplinary action for the pilot. We are also negotiating compensation with the passengers.” During the delay, passengers were given hotel rooms and a free breakfast.
