Learn how you can avoid tarmac nightmares with private jets.

(TRAVPR.COM) UNITED STATES - ^29th June 2010 - Just recently, passengers onboard a Virgin Atlantic Airways flight from London to Newark were left stranded on the tarmac at Connecticut's Bradley International Airport for four hours. Passengers report they were left inside of the hot aircraft with no air conditioning and were not offered food or water. One passenger required oxygen while other passengers were treated by paramedics claiming they did not feel well. Passengers also recall that there were many announcements claiming they would be leaving the tarmac in just a few minutes. This never occurred and were allowed to deboard the aircraft around 1am.

There is a three-hour limit on a tarmac stranding, yet this rule that was instated in April does not apply to international flights by U.S carriers and foreign carriers. After the passengers were allowed off the plane, they sat through more delays going through customs and were then taken to Newark Liberty International Airport by bus. The flight had been diverted due to weather constraints.

While flight delays are a typical daily occurrence with commercial airlines, these extreme situations are making headlines more often than they should. We often hear the horrors of when commercial airlines keep their passengers on a tarmac, leaving them helpless and confused on the plane.
