Bride and her bridesmaids kicked off flight for wearing this .....

A bride-to-be said her hen party was "ruined" after the group of women were kicked from a Jet2 flight to Majorca.

Emma Green, 35, described her total shock at being asked to leave the plane because they were wearing black t-shirts with the slogan 'Bitches On Tour' written on the front in pink.

Speaking from their hotel in Majorca, social worker Emma told the Leicester Mercury:
"It has completely ruined the whole experience.
"We have lost a day already and everybody is really tired from flying in from different airports. Some didn't land until 2am this morning.
"Its going to be really hard to enjoy ourselves now. We are just gutted that it came to this when there was no need.
"Nobody even spoke to me about the T-shirts, the first I knew we were being kicked off the flight."

We are all professional women mainly in our late 30s and 40s. I work with mental health patients and I am not a trouble-maker. "We did not deserve to be treated like we did and would have covered up on the plane if we were all asked to do so. 
"But the word bitch is a pretty mild curse as far as they go anyway, I hardly think the T-shirts were that offensive in the first place." 
 Emma is due to marry fiance Aaron Bateman, 44, in 11 weeks time on August 26.
 "Part of me doesn't even want to get married now, I just feel like something will end up going wrong on the day."My hens have had to fork out an extra £2,000 to come on this holiday and that's just not right. We want an apology and compensation from Jet2 because we have been treated appallingly."
 Jet2 allege the women "ignored" repeated warnings and they were forced to take the decision to "remove" the group from the flight from East Midlands Airport to Mallorca.

Emma said the police seemed confused at how far things had been escalated and she added:
"The police looked bewildered by it all, I think they knew it was ridiculous.
