Oh, the humanity. We would have gone nuts! According to the news report:
JetBlue is reportedly refunding airfares for the 123 passengers it left stranded on a tarmac for seven hours on Saturday. The airline’s flight 504 coming from Fort Lauderdale, Florida was forced to wait on a tarmac at Connecticut’s Bradley International Airport near Hartford after being diverted from Newark Airport amid a rare October storm.
Passengers reportedly grew agitated after being left without food and water or working bathrooms, according to several media reports.
Audio has even been released of the pilot pleading for help, telling airport employees, “we can’t seem to get any help from our own company.” Surprised nobody ran for the emergency exit!
New airline industries rules say that planes that keep passengers stranded on the runway for more than three hours face fines of up to $27,500 a person.

Yea fine them 27,500 and some chump who had nothing to do with the situation profits from the consumers misery.
Stranded on the runway for 7 hours? Holy macaroni, I’m astonished people didn’t actually went for emergency exit or insane on each other. They should fire airport as well.
I get anxious waiting on the runway for 20 min…I would’ve gone crazy
those are some docile ass chumps. once it was obvious that we weren’t gonna take off – i’d been through that emergency exit.
fuck that.
Only if there would been at least one hood-rat hoe things would’ve turned out differently.
So. Jet Blue may pay a fine for delays to passengers, $27,000.00 per person. Now let’s get this straight we keep paying more and higher taxes and in return for our investment in form of taxes, ha, ha, to pay government agencies we get no tax relief or benefit from the fines paid by Jet Blue. Now when it comes time for pay raises and or Bonuses and a big Gov’t Company Christmas Party paid for from the fine fund!!!! Now I am sure a cover story has been previously approved to keep this treasure hidden. The American people are naïve and somewhat ignorant, I believe it is time for our leaders to grow a pair and fix the abuse and misuse of USA legal Americans tax dollars, God Bless America,*********** Does Herman Cain fly Jet Blue, heck No, The report states only 10% are in black locations, so no genocide as Herman Cain Suggested. Do you really want a racist guy who can’t be trusted, a liar, he is full of it. Now we find out he has a problem keeping his rick in his pants, another Bill we do not need as President. I have to tell you Iowans and America this guy scares me with his 666 economic plan, I know it is 999 but just the flagrant use of such a choice of numbers which relates to christianity raises questions about this Herman the Cain is Able to be what we need as a Nation. I like Mr. Paul or Newt, Perry or any of the others over cain, jesus Christ open the eyes of blind America.
