AS Monaco Postpone Trip to Bruges After Plane's AC Failure Overheats Cabin

Club leadership cites passenger safety, with travel rescheduled for tomorrow.

Overview

  • Manager Adi Hutter said the trip was delayed for technical reasons because safety was not guaranteed, a decision taken with CEO Thiago Scuro.
  • Reports attribute the issue to an air‑conditioning failure that left the cabin extremely hot.
  • Footage shared by Jordan Teze showed players in their underwear trying to cool down, with some later disembarking in minimal clothing.
  • The team remained at home and plans to fly the next day, with Hutter noting Monaco have recently traveled on match day.
  • Monaco are slated to play Club Brugge in Bruges on Thursday in their Champions League opener.
