Smile politely. Say you understand that it's his wife's Birthday but point out due to weather turning the schedule upside down, in order to get everyone where they are you're away from home, wearing the same shirt on an unsched' night stop having had a shortbread from the coffee counter for breakfast cos you were in the holiday Inn express, and you'll miss your wife's Birthday too but if he sticks on the plane, everyone will be missing their Wive's Birthdays/ Interviews/ train/ connection/ 10 min freeview on the playboy channel etc etc
But I did chose to do this so can't complain haha
