  1. Uh, let's get a grip here. 9/11 was a 'nightmare'. This was an inconvenience brought about by a medical emergency. To listen to some of the passengers, you would think they would have preferred that one of their fellow passengers die rather than disrupt their travel schedule. Further, while it was cold outside, the plane was heated at all times. Also, given that it was a scheduled 14-hour flight, there should have been plenty of food onboard for that amount of time. First world problems.

  2. I just use United Airlines a few days ago, I took a flight from Phoenix to Chicago then to Detroit. Going there and back to Phoenix I encounter stewardess acting very bougie, I asked about the bathroom how to open up the door she said, "Just go in no one's in there" The other one graciously pushed the door open for me when it was time for me to get my water and snacks I avoided her and told her I want the woman who helped me out. When you coming back to Phoenix on United. The same stewardess who is greeting people to come on the airlines didn't even speak to me at all, but spoke to the passengers in front of me and also in back of me. When it was time to pick up trash I was in a row of seats by myself.I put my trash in the last seat to make sure she pick it up herself, believe me her look on her face she was pissed, payback is a BITCH LOL.😉😊

  3. There’s a major problem when people are prohibited to leave an enclosed bulk filled with little-to-no food, bad temperatures to deal with and toilets running out of water. It seems like nothing less than imprisonment to me-which they paid for!! Why in THE HELL cant people leave until its time to take off again? Logically and economically, it makes no sense. Any help/answers welcome. I truly want to know. Thank you. 🙂

  4. There should be human rights violations for flights that remain on a plane past a certain time. If you realise that time is wasted simply shuttle them to a hotel and ask for a customs person to meet there and temp stamp some passports.

  5. There is another airline that operates this route Cathay Pacific using a much newer A350-941xwb which is the 1 a.m. 2pm departure from Newark Airport to Hong Kong arrival 6 a.m. Hong Kong time next day 5 p.m. Newark Airport time. This aircraft is actually a B777-224/er since the GE90-94b is the aircraft propulsion unit.

  6. Misleading and exaggerated story. And the two passengers with their sky-is-falling social media posts was laugh out loud. How do you "mismanage" an emergency following federal rules?!

    Yes, it was cold OUTSIDE.. but ABC tried hard to imply the passengers were suffering in "sub zero temperatures". And note how they say a "remote icy runway" a couple times… like that matters in a heated plane. And food and water "running low"? Give me a break.

    I'm not saying this wasn't brutal for the passengers. I was once stranded on a tarmac for 7 hours in Canada due to major storm. But free food and booze and a couple free movies and it was all good.

  7. You want to see miserable he's people are sitting on a plane nice and warm but there's people starving in the streets freezing to death think of what you got people you selfish bastard's
