A mum said she is £6,000 out of pocket for tickets to Sunday's Grand Prix in Monaco after easyJet cancelled her flight.
Mum-of-one Sunita Ramjee, 50, said she spent £6,000 on tickets to take her daughter, 19, and brother to the Grand Prix in Monaco for his 40th birthday present.
They were meant to be flying from London Gatwick to Nice on Friday, but the flight was delayed and then cancelled while they were at the airport. She says there were no alternative flights available because of the Grand Prix and Liverpool's fixture in the Champions League final in Paris on Saturday.

Ms Ramjee, from Swansea, said: "We had tickets to the Grand Prix and now easyJet has cancelled my flight and I'm not going to get a refund (for the Formula One tickets).
"I'm really disappointed in the way it was handled. Nobody helped us to try and figure out alternative flights or make hotel bookings. It is something my daughter has been looking forward to since we moved to the UK, it was my brother's 40th birthday present."
An easyJet spokesman said: "We have taken the decision to make advance cancellations of around 24 Gatwick flights per day starting from May 28 until June 6.
"We are very sorry for the late notice of some of these cancellations and inconvenience caused for customers booked on these flights, however we believe this is necessary to provide reliable services over this busy period."
