A dad of two disabled children has spoken out after they were left stranded on board a plane that landed at Jersey Airport for an hour and a half. Rory Steel lives on the island with his family, who were all returning home from a holiday on Tuesday 9 May. The British Airways flight landed in Jersey at around 8:50pm, but the Steel family were left waiting to disembark until nearly 10:30pm when wheelchairs were provided.
