So true.

Two guys travelliung from a hot place in Spain to a cold place (manchester) decide to dress warmly in preparation. They speak in their own language and check their watches from time to time.... isnt that what people who are travelling or waiting to board a plane or train or any other form of mass transport do? Check for borading time / delays etc?

The airline should have taken a firmer stance and told the passengers who didnt want to board that they were free not to. If these 2 guys had been thru security and there was no issue with them then they were fine to board the plane, if the other passengers were not comfortable with that then fine, pay for another flight at another time.

I'd like to see the 2 guys sue the airline for blatant racism or discrimination. If the secuirty staff had made the decision then fair enough thats their job but for a bunch or ignorant misguided (possible sun readers) to force the point? Thats just plain wrong imho.
