Passengers had to sleep in a military barracks after the plane made an emergency landing!

Passengers traveling from Amsterdam in the Netherlands to Detroit in the US spent the night in a military barracks in eastern Canada after the plane was forced to land due to mechanical failure. Delta Airlines crew diverted the plane to Newfoundland and Labrador on Sunday after the malfunction, WJBK-TV reported.

The passenger, Tony Santoro, told the television station that passengers were accommodated in barracks during the 24-hour delay. "It was really like a hotel," Santoro said, "It wasn't too bad. We had soap, water, everything," Santoro said. Passenger Nathan Johnson said the airline communicated little about what was going on.

Delta Airlines told AP in a statement that Flight 135 was grounded "as a precautionary measure." He said he was diverted to Goose Bay airport. "Weather and runway conditions at Goose Bay airport have resulted in a suspension of operations and crew duty times have been impacted. Delta has dispatched additional aircraft to Goose Bay to transport customers to their final destinations," Delta said in a statement. Delta is working with authorities in Goose Bay to arrange for food, water and lodging on Sunday night, the company said, adding that passengers will be compensated for the inconvenience.

Nathan Johnson, 45, said passengers waited on the tarmac for five hours for another plane to take them to Detroit. When the second plane arrived, Johnson said, the passengers boarded, only to be told by the crew that they had timed out and had to land again. Johnson and the other passengers were taken to the military barracks by school bus at around 6 a.m. on Monday. The passengers had arrived at the barracks unprepared, without their bags. In the cold Canadian weather, some passengers were also without coats. Johnson said he and his wife had to sleep in the clothes they had been wearing since leaving Munich, Germany, hours earlier. "We were taken back to the rooms with no idea when we were supposed to wake up or when we were supposed to be ready," Johnson said, adding, "There was no communication."
