So that proves ppl were held hostage (probably for profit) for 8+ hours right? Cause that's how any reasonable journalist would interpret it...

Yesterday had that JFK-MIA flight. We pushed nearly ontime, held on taxiway for 2 hours, did remote gate return with buses, timed out, another crew was rerouted on it and the flight went out 8 hours late. That flight # is bad luck. At least no brawl though.

Good thing the flight wasn’t delayed even more.

A hockey game might have broken out.

That’s what happened on the fight flight! We did not however charge the passengers for the ringside seats as it was a TKO in round two.
