bikejournoHave not experienced that one before: boarding of flight TK1907 at #Istanbul Airport has been stopped and all passengers had to leave the plane again. Since I have developed this habbit of boarding last, I could only watch it happening. The screen still says LAST CALL and no new departing time has been communicated yet. #travel
Bogdan Buduroiu@bikejourno pilot refused the aircraft?

Nah, neither the plane nor the pilot got swapped.
From what I understood, one elderly passenger had already boarded and should have not - be it for lack of valid travel documents or a valid ticket. No idea how that can happen.
Rather than removing just him, the entire board was disboarded and reboarded without that guy who was protesting loudly. No official word for Turkish Airlines on the incident however. Strange one.
