If you're complaining then you're still alive. Good job to the pilots for recognizing the danger and not taking any chances.

If a plane can land and doesn't have to crash in water then nobody dies by not having a meal for a few hours. I'd just be thankful to be on the ground.

If that situation makes you cry, then you really haven’t faced much adversity in life.

As frustrating as it must have been, a lot of support people-, likely military, really must've rallied to pull together meals, transpo and accomodations for an impromptu emergency. I've been stuck in Goose Bay for the exact same reason on a military charter flight. We waited, on the plane, no food, for hours in the middle of the night, the door open to blowing wind to get fresh air. Waiting waiting waiting for new crew to arrive. Thanks to all the behind the scenes Canadians responding to this emergency.

It's pretty cool that the Canadian Forces could offer beds and snacks to 200+ passengers on zero notice.

Why are they complaining .? They should be grateful the pilots landed safely under emergency conditions

If I were them, I'd be grateful that I was alive and thankful for the pilots. Being stuck on a military base is better than crashing.

Even though they were in Canada the people need a not just be saddened but actually have gratitude and thankful that they were in the place where they can have sleep and food instead of stranded somewhere. Be honest with you I rather be stuck where they're at then stranded in middle of nowhere and crashed look at the pros and cons

Misleading headline: A successful emergency landing. (Video never said what the mechanical problem was btw... not very informative - something seems off with the front landing gear though...)

Goose Bay may be remote but it's got the longest runway around and it's the go to remote landing strip for transatlantic flights because of its location. (I.e. it's not the first and not the last plane with an unscheduled stop in Goose Bay) (i.e. procedures are in place)

There's also a rather large military base i.e. some sort of facilities.

Furthermore the flight was from Europe so passengers could probably claim monetary compensation for the delay if they choose to.

It was horrible and she cried over it? 20 hours NO WAY!! Really, they gave them a bed and food and they talk like they almost died. What happened in the old days when the wheel came off the stagecoach?

1:12 Next time just leave this one outside in the cold. She looks like one of those "permanently offended" types.
