An Argentinean woman mistakenly flew out to the wrong continent after buying a holiday online.
Monique Torres Aguero of Buenos Aires had intended a trip to Sydney Australia, but had not realised she had actually booked a flight to Sidney in Nova Scotia, Canada.
She only realised the mishap when she boarded a small propeller powered plane to take her on the last leg of her journey, but she didn’t want to “make a fuss”.
She said: "When things happen, you let them happen." The Canadian town – located in the British Columbia province of the country – has welcomed several misguided tourists in the past.
Two Britons accidentally turned up in 2002 while Sidney has also seen lost holidaymakers from Germany and Czechoslovakia.
