Canada's evacuation plan for Libya hits more snags

A second chartered plane is reportedly coming from countries like Amman, Jordan to embattled countries like Tripoli, and Libya to pick up Canadian citizens who want to get out of the country. The flight is expected to return to Rome upon landing in these countries from there the Canadians will be either sent on a flight or boat back to Canada. The first flight today came back empty handed as there was no Canadians waiting at the airport and because these countries are so dangerous right now the plane was unable to wait for someone to show up. With thing starting to heat up in Libya the government wants to get these Canadians out of that country.

I think that these Canadians trapped in these countries should stay at the airport awaiting the arrival of the planes. If these people were able to get a hold of someone in Canada earlier to let them know that they want out of the country I'm sure that they would be able to do that again so they can determine when they should meet at the airport so they can be sent back to Canada.
