    Hi All. Well Morgan and I have been in the Airport since 5am and we were told at Check-in there has been some sort of technical issue with Plane and that there are delays. Was meant to Depart at 9:15 and the next 'Update' has now been scheduled for 12 noon :( Anyone else at the Airport having the same issue? Also, what's the weather like in Cancun atm?

    We're still sat in the Airport! 10 hours we've been delayed so far and Thomas Cook are giving nothing away! We're none the wiser right now as to what's happening! It's pathetic! Lost the first day of our Honeymoon! It's outrageous!!! Good Luck of you are flying with them.

    That's disappointing to hear :(

    If it's any consolation Cancun has had 20 inches of rain in the last 4 days. Schools closed streets flooded, probably not much fun at the hotel. I think you are going to miss the worst of it - it's starting to look brighter.
