180 Wizz Air passengers are in Athens for the second day, as the plane, which was supposed to operate the Athens-Abu Dhabi flight on Monday at 18.20, encountered a technical malfunction and had to get up for repairs.

According to the publication “Ethnos”, the passengers stayed overnight at the hotel, but have not yet departed. At the moment, they have returned to the airport of Athens, where they have been for about 2 hours. It is expected that the flight will take place during the day, but the plane did not take off until 21:00.
