Default 9 hours, but only 3 on the Tarmac.
I wouldn't want to be stuck in an old MD-80 for 9 hours either.

Better than many other tubes out there to be stuck in. If they only wrote more laws they could have prevented this tragedy.

The best part was the guy just rifling through the liquor cart.

The only thing better would've been seeing a kid grabbing a bottle and holding it up as a prize.
