Newport News to Charlotte, 5 hours day before my birthday. We pushed off the gate three times and went back twice after sitting out for an hour with each 15 minute update expecting to be released. When I finally made the PA flight attendants be seated for departure we heard cheers through the door.... Of course US Air gives free liquor after like 45 minutes... so they were all wasted. To add insult to injury I ended up overnighting in Charlotte when I was supposed to have my birthday off.
