How hard is it to deplane and let the passengers chill in the terminal? I'm sure there was an open gate at the airport that the plane can be pulled into for 20 minutes, unload, pull the aircraft to a parking spot to fix, and then load up and go. Lazy planning.

While the article is obviously dramatic, those people should not have been on that plane for that long. I’m honestly not sure how I would have handled it.

I don't think this is the same as us becoming pussies. I can understand how 6 hours without air and not being allowed to leave could cause some serious distress.

It's one thing to say this about people being upset about their AC breaking at home, suck it up, part of life, etc.

But you're paying for the privilege of a massive company to treat you like shite for no good reason under the threat of likely arrest if you get too upset about it

Think about having kids under the age of 2. I'd be pretty goddamn upset.

Agreed. If they were truly “sobbing”.

That said. I’d be pretty fricking pissed sitting on a plane for six hours. AC or no AC.
