Loose Women’s Denise Welsh fumes at Jet2 and demands answers over delayed flight

As the country continues to deal with flight cancellations and delays, Loose Women star Denise Welsh found herself among those stuck waiting at the airport for more than seven hours ahead of her trip to Venice

Loose Women's Denise Welch was not happy her Jet2 flight was severely delayed.

The former Coronation Street actress, 64, was going to Venice to see her husband's art exhibition, when she was told her flight had been postponed for more than seven hours.

In light of the country's recent travel chaos, Denise had conscientiously dropped her luggage off the night before she was due to fly.

But, unfortunately, it made no difference.

As she rocked up at the airport, the mum-of-two was told her flight had been delayed from 7.55am to 3.15pm.

The news went down like a lead balloon, with Denise taking to Twitter to express her anger.

Denise finally made it to Venice with her family

Fuming, she wrote: ""Please @jet2tweets tell us why our 07.55 to Venice is delayed til 15.15!!! WTF!!! Dropped bags off last night to save time!!!!!"

She also continued the rant having later arrived in the Italian city, saying: "Didn’t we have a luvverly time the day we went to…..Venice’!!!

"A 9 hour delay but we’re here to see my talented husband's art at the Bienalle!!! Very proud, hungry and tired @lincolntownley @townleyduncan and Jenny."

At the time of writing, Jet2 hadn't relied to the actress, but plenty of other disgruntled customers had.

One replied: "My friend was due to fly back from Venice on Sunday to Manchester. His flight was cancelled and he had to fly to Paris, then Dublin and then Manchester its a joke."

While another quipped: ""Are you really surprised after all what is happening with flights atm? My flight got cancelled whilst we were ready to board."

The country has been dealing with crippling travel chaos in which a number of flights have been cancelled and delayed in recent weeks.

Experts have warned the disruption that no-one seems to be able to sort out will hit the summer holidays and could continue for 18 months.

Thankfully for Denise, she did make it Venice and shared some adorable snaps of trip.

She's always very vocal on Loose Women

Accompanied by her partner Lincoln Townley, his mum, Jen and brother, Duncan, the actress posed up a storm on Venice's Bridge of Sighs.

She captioned the snap: "Walked about 9,000 miles today, laughed a lot (mostly at Jen) and just had the best homemade pasta in the world! Well, Italy.

"Food,family, f…..g exhausted!!!"

She loves a holiday!

One said: "Lovely picture of you all having a lovely time in Venice."

While another gushed: "Beautiful family."
