Friedenberger left Calgary on Dec. 15 for a Sunwing vacation in Cancun. She was supposed to return home a week later, but she got a notification saying the flight was delayed. Over the next few days, the notifications kept coming, pushing the flight later into the week. When Sunwing directed them to another location on Christmas Eve, some were so distrustful they stayed behind to sleep in the lobby again until they had proof a room was waiting for them, she added.
Friedenberger said she’s encountered other Canadians stranded in Cancun by other Sunwing flights, and she said they’re coping with the same unknowns.Cristina Oppedisano said her Sunwing flight home from Cancun to Toronto on Dec. 21 was also cancelled. Like Friedenberger, Oppedisano said in an interview that she and her family don’t know when they’ll get home.
