For those of us who suffer from claustrophobia-and yet have exercised the courage to fly– every minute of delay behind a closed airplane door is an agony. To those unsympathetic, please imagine listening to the screws of your coffin being inexorably tightened with you alive, inside. It is unlikely that Pepto Bismal, a NY Times bestseller or thoughts of Aunt Em are going to be of much use.
Provide a secured room for deplaning if it is known that the delay will be more than a half hour, at all airports, national and international. And de-plane. Keep us informed of what is going on. Keep the air flowing.
