Passengers had to spend the night in Guernsey Airport’s terminal after a flight between the island and Jersey was cancelled and no accommodation could be found.
The Blue Islands flight was due to depart Guernsey at 20:25 BST on Saturday, but was cancelled an hour later due to severe thunderstorms over Jersey, the airline said.
It added hotels were full and airport representatives explored other options, but no alternative accommodation was available.
A Blue Islands spokesperson said: “Disruption is the last resort, however safety of our passengers, crew and aircraft is always our number one priority. While these circumstances were out of our control we apologise for the inconvenience.”
