An Indian was stranded for five days at Abu Dhabi airport as he forgot his passport in the plane while transiting for another flight to Saudi Arabia, according to a report on Wednesday.
Mohammed Ali, a resident of Kerala, had set out from Calicut to Riyadh via Abu Dhabi on March 6. The flight was diverted to Al Ain due to heavy fog and thus reached Abu Dhabi airport after delay, Emirates 24/7 quoted sources as saying. Ali and other Riyadh-bound passengers were asked to board a connecting flight but after waiting in the aircraft for some time they were again asked to deboard the plane for some reason.
