No passports or money: Family's nightmare Rhodes holiday escape from raging wildfires

  • 10 months ago
A family have told of their horror holiday in Rhodes after they spotted smoke from wildfires while they were relaxing around the pool.

Mum-of-two Jaynina Andrews, 37, was in Lindos, Rhodes, with her family for her brother's wedding on a three-night package holiday with EasyJet.

Jaynina and children Jaydan, 11, and Phoebe, seven, were relaxing by the pool when they began to smell smoke and see thick clouds.

Jaynina and her children had to sprint across a beach before being bundled into a boat - without money or passports - after the wildfires struck.

They left the rest of their family behind in the commotion and "feared [they ] had died".

After a night on the floor of a sports hall, they finally made it home.
