Jfk Delay
I'm stranded on the runway at Syracuse in upstate NY, AA258 has been on the ground 4.5 hours now, after 'delays at JFK'. When we landed, there were around 8 other aircraft here including a KLM 747. It took 2 hours to refuel, and all the time the flight crew kept giving us pessimistic estimates of wheels up times. The last one was an hour ago, promising we would be wheels up at 8pm. Our original arrival time was 3.30pm, we left Vegas 4.5 hours before then.
So far: 9 hours on board, the overflowing toilets were mercifully pumped out after some econpmy passengers felt sick. 180 bags of chips were delivered. But we are stuck onboard, and it's getting dark outside.
Does anyone know what on earth is happening?
