'I nearly cried': Brits relive travel chaos for Rhodes wedding
Wedding party make it to Greek island as thousands of holidaymakers and workers continue to be evacuated.
The 2.45pm easyJet flight from London Luton to Rhodes was only a quarter full on Monday - unusually quiet for the busy school summer holiday period, and a reflection of how many travellers have been deterred by the wildfires that have ravaged the south of the island.
The conflagration, after a period of extreme heat, has led to thousands of holidaymakers being forced to evacuate their hotels. Nearly 1,500 holidaymakers are understood to have flown home on Monday alone, while others were relocated by travel firms or paid for new rooms elsewhere.
About half the easyJet flight were members of a wedding party, including Kirsty Galvin, 32, and Robert Heasman, 38, from Bedford. "It was like a private jet," said Galvin.
The couple were feeling relieved, after their original flights at 8am on Monday morning had been cancelled at midnight the night before.
"We were obviously devastated - we’ve spent thousands of pounds, we’ve had everything engraved with the dates," Galvin added. "We had half our guests who arrived last week so we knew they were already out here waiting for us. If we had to reschedule people just wouldn’t have been able to afford to come. It’s been a nightmare."
The couple searched alternative travel routes, including flying to Kos, another Greek island, or Marmaris in Turkey and getting the ferry.

Wedding party make it to Greek island as thousands of holidaymakers and workers continue to be evacuated.
The 2.45pm easyJet flight from London Luton to Rhodes was only a quarter full on Monday - unusually quiet for the busy school summer holiday period, and a reflection of how many travellers have been deterred by the wildfires that have ravaged the south of the island.
The conflagration, after a period of extreme heat, has led to thousands of holidaymakers being forced to evacuate their hotels. Nearly 1,500 holidaymakers are understood to have flown home on Monday alone, while others were relocated by travel firms or paid for new rooms elsewhere.
About half the easyJet flight were members of a wedding party, including Kirsty Galvin, 32, and Robert Heasman, 38, from Bedford. "It was like a private jet," said Galvin.
The couple were feeling relieved, after their original flights at 8am on Monday morning had been cancelled at midnight the night before.
"We were obviously devastated - we’ve spent thousands of pounds, we’ve had everything engraved with the dates," Galvin added. "We had half our guests who arrived last week so we knew they were already out here waiting for us. If we had to reschedule people just wouldn’t have been able to afford to come. It’s been a nightmare."
The couple searched alternative travel routes, including flying to Kos, another Greek island, or Marmaris in Turkey and getting the ferry.
People arrive at Rhodes airport.
