Furious Jet Blue customers cast out on street 'like animals'

A holiday escape to the paradise of the Turks and Caicos turned into a tortuous ordeal for dozens of JetBlue passengers after their flight home to Boston was cancelled leaving them stranded on the island with no place to go.

Those who were supposed to be traveling on the flight back to the U.S. on December 28 have described their experience as a 'nightmare' after staff at Providenciales International Airport said passengers had to leave the premises in order for it to close.

The troubles began when their inbound JetBlue aircraft faced an unexpected diversion to Fort Lauderdale due to air traffic control congestion leaving it unable to reach the archipelago.
