Air Malta passengers in Catania were fuming after a flight from Vienna that was meant to stop en route to Malta kept going.

A passenger said that no reason was given for the change in schedule in KM 513.

Seven passengers accepted to spend the night and take a flight on Thursday morning, while the other passengers were put onto a later flight on Wednesday.

It was the second re-scheduling that day as a flight from Orly had to return to Paris for its autopilot to be checked. The flight eventually left at the time that it was meant to have arrived in Malta.
