Dragons’ Den star Touker Suleyman rants at easyJet staff over flight ‘delayed by four days’
Touker Suleyman got into a heated conversation with an easyJet staff member after his flight was delayed.
In an Instagram post, the Dragons’ Den star, 70, said he had been to a pet fair in Izmir, Turkey, and had been due to fly back to Gatwick airport but was told the flight would be late, a crew member was not well, and 20 passengers would be left behind.
“EasyJet was offering €400 as compensation... the next flight was four days time,” he added.
According to Flightradar24, flight U26594 left Izmir at 10:15pm BST and landed in the UK at 2:29am BST.
The Independent has contacted easyJet for comment.
