Silva says the airport is full because of the cancellations. Add online blackouts and the problems multiply. “Some Americans told us their cards didn’t work. There are few sockets at the airport, so there were queues to recharge their cell phones,” says the promoter.
Food on site was also affected. “Fast foods ran out of some menu items and huge lines formed with people wanting something to eat.” He and his friend could only eat at 4 p.m.
Sponsors are airport staff, not airlines. “After two hours of chaos for people to collect the staff brought out some chocolates and water.”
The young man says that at a certain point it was difficult to control his frustration. “It was a bit worrying, yes. We didn’t know if we would have a flight or if there would be any other transport. We didn’t even know if it was a problem in Germany. In the morning the news started coming in that the supermarkets were closed.”
Silva and Fonseca arranged another flight, leaving tomorrow (20) morning, from another city, Munich. “We were going to take a train there, which cost 150 euros (R$ 913), and we had to spend an additional 400 euros (R$ 2,435) to change the tickets. It was the most viable option. At that time we increased the limit of payment card”.
