Portland teens caught in travel nightmare

A couple of teens from Portland got caught up in a travel nightmare, courtesy of Delta Airlines.

First their flight to Newark landed in Syracuse instead, some 250 miles away. Delta declined to fly everyone on to Newark, opting instead to hire buses for the rest of the trip.

Then one of the buses in the convoy crashed, killing the driver and causing another eight hour delay.

Olivia and Madeline Midgett are finally on their way to Nantucket, two days late. Delta hasn't decided yet if they're going to compensate them for their trouble.
