SCARLETS ARE TRAPPED IN EYE OF STORM
Western Mail
|October 06, 2025
THE full scale of Scarlets’ travel hell has emerged after their United Rugby Championship clash with Connacht was called off late on Friday night.
The Welsh team’s flight to Dublin was caught up in Storm Amy as players and fans endured a nightmare day amid a dramatic aborted landing in the Irish capital.
The players boarded the flight from Bristol at 1.30pm on Friday and were initially told there would be a 90-minute delay before taking off.
After finally getting in the air there were multiple failed attempts to land in Dublin before the aircraft was diverted to Manchester, landing at 5.30pm.
More than five hours later, the players remained on the runway at Manchester airport after 11pm.
