So to start my Spring break, I had 8 hours worth of flight delays XD
There were people getting angry everywhere and others acting like it was the end of the world.
My favorites were:
A man who yelled at a flight attendant (because flight attendants are secretly weather fairies, bringing in snow storms as they so please)
A man who asked for a new flight, hotel, and a refund (quite a few people did this actually). I just don't understand why he stopped there, he might as well have asked for some free waffle fries while he was at it =P
And a teenage girl whose flight had been delayed for 3 hours on the verge of tears. She called her friend to tell her that she "couldn't stand being in an airport anymore." She had an iPod, smart-phone, and laptop, so there was obviously NOTHING to do for entertainment as she waited.
Now you may be thinking "Micah, a lot of these examples reflect your lack of sensitivity and empathy," but being in airports/planes for 13 hours does that to you =P
There were a few people who kept their cool though. One guy in particular seemed happy the entire time, he boarded right before me, and when they scanned his ticket an error popped up and said he wasn't booked for this plane. He just laughed as they sorted it out and remained in a good mood. In all honesty, at that point (4 hours of delay for this flight). If someone had told me that I wasn't booked for the flight, I have no idea what I would do, probably just cry, haha
