Royal Air Maroc Flight Delayed 14 Hours at Paris Orly, Passengers Outraged

Initially scheduled to take off at 9:15 a.m., a Royal Air Maroc (RAM) flight to Marrakech finally departed at 11:14 p.m. from Paris Orly airport, with a 14-hour delay.
Takeoff with a 14-hour delay. This is one delay too many for a plane bound for Marrakech. The plane supposed to take off at 9:15 a.m. had remained parked on the tarmac due to an engine failure. Without communication, passengers express their anger. "There is no news, no communication service, no Royal Air Maroc representative," deplores a passenger to BFMTV. "We were shuffled from hour to hour, from door to door. We don’t see anyone from Royal Air Maroc," fumes another passenger in anger.
