Helsingin Sanomat - International Edition - Foreign: "The most urgent question in Fuengirola, a popular holiday resort among Finns on the Costa del Sol, was what would be the pecking order when flights do eventually take off.
”We heard from a representative of Finnair that the first to fly will be those who should have left by a plane that failed to take off on Thursday evening, says Taina Suutarinen, the owner of Meriatur, a Finnish travel agency on the Costa del Sol.
Not every holiday-maker is able to arrange an independent train or bus trip, as some of the stranded Finns are inexperienced travellers and elderly people, according to Suutarinen.
”Many people’s language skills are simply not sufficient to go on an adventurous trip across Europe. They would not be able to change buses on their own”, Suutarinen adds.
Riitta and Harri Kevari from Vaasa and their friends Riitta and Esa Ranne from Laihia near Vaasa have snagged themselves a bus trip to Tallinn."
