Location, Location, Location star Kirstie Allsopp has vented her frustration after her British Airways flight was delayed for nearly 48 hours.
The delay caused the mother-of-two, 52, from London to miss hospital appointments and filming.
Kirstie appears to still be holed up in the unknown getaway location after returning to the airport only to find out that the departure had been delayed yet again.
Fuming, she posted on X: ‘I don’t think I have ever been so enraged by any company as I have been, and still am, with @British_Airways.
‘This latest episode, a delay of over 24 hours with next to no information and missed hospital appointments and filming as a result, is but another in a long line of [poo emoji].’

Kirstie’s post has been viewed by over 65,000 people, and did get a swift reply from the airline’s official X account, inviting the presenter to contact them so they could ‘take a closer look’ to see if they could arrange an earlier flight
After an hour-and-a-half’s breather, the Channel 4 star returned to social media to add: ‘We pitched up at the airport as instructed, 24 hours after our original flight, waited 2 hours to be told that our flight is now delayed by another 21 hours until 5pm local time tomorrow.’
That amounts to a 47-hour wait in total.
She concluded that the delay was ‘utter chaos’.

Kirstie had already seemingly had a disrupted flight with BA in the previous few weeks.
On March 27, she posted on X: ‘Has anyone ever had a “ghost booking” with British Airways, a ticket is booked but ‘cos the payment didn’t register, through no fault of yours, the ticket disappears and you think you never booked it/are going mad?’
Her followers reported that similar things had happened to them, causing them to ‘lose the plot’.
Kirstie already said that this incident had made her ‘beyond angry’.
Understandably, one follower of the housing expert asked: ‘Seriously Kirstie. You constantly criticise BA. I’m just wondering why you don’t choose a different carrier?’
British Airways have been contacted for comment.
Reporting previous incidents which had left her fuming at BA, one follower asked: ‘Seriously Kirstie. You constantly criticise BA. I’m just wondering why you don’t choose a different carrier?’
