ST. JOHN’S, N.L. — More than 200 exhausted passengers were left stranded and frustrated in St. John’s on Wednesday after a flight from Montreal to Germany made an emergency stop. A representative from the St. John’s international airport confirmed that a Lufthansa flight arrived slightly after 2 a.m. Lufthansa spokesman Tal Muscal confirmed that the aircraft landed in St. John’s for a medical emergency and said a passenger was taken to the hospital, but could not confirm whether a death occurred. Burgess said the complaints may seem “petty” considering the medical reason for the emergency landing, but said he thought the day could have been handled better.
