American Airlines passengers stranded in Peru for three days after plane suffers mechanical issues.
One passenger was visiting Machu Picchu for the first time. Another was traveling for work. Neither knew that what should have been a 7-hour flight would turn into a multiday journey.
Brennan Mulligan, 24, from Austin, Texas, was not scheduled for the original flight, but joined the other passengers on their second attempted departure Sept. 10. Again, passengers boarded shuttle buses, returned to the airport, had their exit stamps canceled and were provided with vouchers for meals and hotels.
"The mood was getting really tense," Mulligan said."We all knew there was a problem [with the engine] and we were praying we wouldn't take off." In a repeat of the previous evenings, passengers boarded shuttle buses to return to the airport and had their exit stamps canceled.
