Lovorka from Croatia (Austrian Airlines OS 88 Flight delay)
June 13, 2019, 9:37 am

The aircraft was at the JFK airport on time. We waited for boarding for three hours. They just told us they have technical issues. We had a connection in Vienna which we missed. We were offered a fligt next day, 24 hours after our original flight which we couldn't accept so we organized another way of transport from Vienna to Zagreb by ourselves.
