Couple posted 'Goodbye India' video from airport

Jamie Ray Greenlaw-Meek and Fiongal Greenlaw-Meek are among 53 British nationals who flew on the aircraft which crashed yesterday with 242 passengers onboard.

In a video shared onto their company The Wellness Foundry’s Instagram account, Fiongal, a former fashion designer, said: “We are at the airport, just boarding, goodbye India”. His husband then joked about the lengthy 10-hour flight.

In another clip shared to social media, they described their trip as a “magical experience” and promised to share a vlog with their followers of their “mind blowing things”.

“We really have been on quite a journey and then just spending the last night here in this most amazing hotel, we’ve just had the most delicious Thali food. It was the perfect way to round up the trip,” Jamie said.
