The TUI travellers were left stranded at Exeter Airport overnight after they were told to disembark their flight to Turkey and return home.
Holidaymakers have told of their 'nightmare' flight which was delayed for more than 16 hours because the plane was too heavy.
Some passengers watched on in horror as random suitcases were removed from the plane to make it lighter. They were then told they would be waiting until the following day and eventually boarded the flight and headed for Antalya at around 8.40am. A spokesperson for Tui apologised to those affected, adding: "We completely understand the frustration of customers who were due to be on flight FHY546 from Exeter yesterday and we would like to apologise for the delay in their journey. The flight, operated by Freebird, experienced a technical issue prior to take off. As a precaution, all customers needed to be disembarked so that engineers could carry out an inspection and resolve the problem.
