Chelsea fans have been left stranded at Luton airport after their flights were delayed as they tried to make their way to Baku on Wednesday morning.
The Blues’ official travel partner, Thomas Cook Sport, offered return economy flights for the 2,468-mile trip to Baku at a price of £979 earlier this month and that does not include the match ticket.

UEFA have been criticised by fans for holding the Europa League final in Baku, Azerbaijan
It would take around four days to get to the stadium via public transport and it will mean there will be just a handful of English supporters in the Olympic Stadium, which has a 68,700 capacity.
Supporters who have been willing to make the journey have faced an arduous 2,500 mile trek over several days as there are no direct flights to Baku.
