Marooned?

I have various friends marooned in cities and airports, in various places around Europe. We spent seven hours stuck at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport in November after our flight had been cancelled, which was bad enough. Some of my friends have been in such places now for days on end - while volcanic ash still billows out of Iceland, and gently settles over Northern Europe.
