Former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, Misbah-ul-Haq, was angry with the attitude of Emirates Airlines and wrote on X, “It’s strange that you @emirates start boarding process and after two hours suddenly tells everyone to go back as the flight iscancelled. People are made to stand in lines with children for hours and hours for nothing at the end. Worst behaviour of an airline ever in my life.”

“First we were asked to board, then after two hours the flight was canceled, people were standing in queues with children for hours, waiting for us for 30 hours. The situation is understood, but if an honest answer is not given, then anger comes.”

Kamran Akmal retweeted the tweet and wrote, “Disappointing service by @Emirates at DXB.”
