Yeah, funny story. Delta 737 fully boarded up, they're ready to pull the jetway when the gate agent comes on the PA and says I have to call sked before leaving. Get pulled off that, get rerouted to go CVG-ORD-JFK-CVGdh. Then get rerouted to go CVG-ORD-JFK-DTW-CVGdh. Then get rerouted to go CVG-ORD-JFK-CVG. Then we taxi out and sit at the runway with about 30 other planes in ORD for 4 hours before returning to the gate.
