Travel hassle on the way to NewcastleMan Utd forced to hit the roadReturned via a private jet in 30 minutes!WHAT HAPPENED?

The Red Devils were in a spot of bother after the club's chartered jet, scheduled for the morning flight to Newcastle, was grounded in Humberside. Fortunately, the travel department had a contingency plan, deploying two coaches to transport the squad and support staff to the match. Nonetheless, it took them more than three hours to reach the venue which had sapped considerable energy before taking the field.

They struggled to find the rhythm throughout the match and were outplayed by Eddie Howe's troops before succumbing to a 1-0 loss, their 10th defeat in the season.

However, United's return to Manchester went more smoothly. After the match, a replacement plane was secured, reducing the travel time to 30 minutes, a significant improvement from the three-hour coach trip earlier in the day.

The club has previously acknowledged the environmental concerns associated with flying to distant domestic games like Newcastle. However, like many other Premier League clubs, they continue to use private jets, and the travel department consistently prepares contingency plans for potential technical issues or airport closures due to adverse weather conditions.
