Update on 2 September 2020:

scandalous flight
.
As Victoria Webb from
London
reported to RTL, TUI only
contacted her
five days after the
return flight
to her home country.
In the conversation, the 36-year-old now raises serious allegations against the British health authorities.
However, Webb doesn't say a bad word to the crew.
Even if many passengers wore the
masks under their noses
or even under their chins, the crew was "very attentive".
In addition, according to the British, it is the responsibility of the passengers, who should now know how to wear a mask correctly.

The criticism of the 36-year-olds is rather directed at the British
health authorities
.
They have not contacted Webb to this day, although she had filled out a form on board.
She only found out about the disaster flight from the press.
On the way back to London she read about it in an article.
While on the train she was
isolated
by the
train crew
in a single compartment.
Five days later, TUI informed them by email.
"It cannot be that you find out through the
press
that you have been exposed to the coronavirus," explains Webb in the interview.
According to RTL, the travel company TUI is concerned about the reports from the
plane
.
Accordingly, all allegations are now being investigated.
“Our crew is trained according to the highest standards.
We started an extensive investigation because the security risks were not reported during the flight, "RTL quotes the travel company.
