Desperate New Zealanders stuck in Peru are pleading with the government for help, after they were bumped off an Australian charter flight that was meant to get them home.
Over the weekend, 24 New Zealanders who had paid more than $5,000 each for seats were told they couldn't board, because there were no same-day flights from Sydney to Auckland once they landed.
But as they later discovered, there is a flight and they could have transited through Australia after all.
RNZ reporter Sarah Robson has the story.
