However, scores of people reported having to spend the night sleeping on the floor of airports, with many more complaining about the lack of a proper meal.

However, the bride and groom-to-be need to register their marriage at a local court before they can be legally wed - and while they have managed to book on to a flight to Milan on Wednesday, they have 'no idea' whether that too will be cancelled, the BBC reports.He told MailOnline: 'E Mary Byrne, who was also on the same flight, said: 'I don't understand why Jet2 can't just delay the flight.
Kirstie Rowley, 52, a payroll and finance officer from Rochdale , was also travelling to Corfu on the 7.30am flight 'It is wrong. Everyone is trying to make a quick buck and cash in on what is happening. I am fed up and have been looking forward to this holiday.' Instead, they ended up paying £300 to hire a car and drive three hours to Caen on Monday night, staying in a £150 hotel, before boarding a ferry crossing back to the UK today.
Jo Winter was enjoying her first family holiday with her three children in four years before the chaos unfoldedPassengers queue for check-in in the car park at Manchester Airport's Terminal OnePassengers queue for check-in at Manchester Airport's Terminal Two this morning People were jostling to speak to Jet2 staff to get information but left frustrated with no answers as to what was happening.
Jamie Sedman, 33, from York, told how he and his partner constructed makeshift beds from the Jet2 stands and a crate for their three children aged fifteen, nine and six, after being forced to spend the night in the airport. Lorry driver Jamie was told that his Jet2 flight to Leeds and Bradford Airport was due to depart four different times but was still waiting to be checked-in.'The thing that really annoys me the most is no one knew what was going on. The reps at the hotel were appalling, I've never known anything like it. Ryanair kept people in their hotels.
Mandy said: 'Jet2 have treated us with no dignity. We've had no sleep at all and just sat on our wet towels on the floor. Other people were sleeping on the floor and seats. I feel so sorry for people with little kids. 'I don't feel able to drive from the airport when we do get back because I've had no sleep. My mum is going to meet us at the airport and drive my car, whenever we get home.
Chris Manning, 42, from Shropshire, was told his Jet2 flight to Manchester would be at 12.15pm. His family-of-four, comprising two children aged five and eleven, were told that there was no issue when they arrived at the airport. Uel O'Neill and Rachel O'Neill have had to spend £4,000 on a new Jet2 flight for this Sunday to get to Belfast with their children Tilly, 7, Sam, 8, and James, five, after their Easyjet flight was cancelled today.
But after the flight was cancelled, he travelled down to London, had to stay overnight in a hotel and then booked on Brussels Airline. Elsewhere, Alexandra Williamson, 45, from Birmingham, was due to fly to visit her daughter in Prague when her flight was cancelled at the last minute.The mum-of-one said: 'My flight was cancelled one hour before I flew. The airline booked us in the hotel, we had to wait for six hours for the hotel, but then there were more delays as people were waiting for the rooms.
'We've got a one-year-old with us and think the most challenging part in the airport was that there was nothing open.'I think it would have been a lot easier in the daytime with facilities. It was very frustrating. Mr Kennedy said: 'We queued for ages to leave our bags and just as we got to the front it was on our phones that the flight was cancelled.'Eventually we just left and booked a space in a hotel.'
