I had a similar issue with J* in Hobart. The a/c went tech due to the airbridge that jumped out in front of it. We were in the terminal for about 8 hours. The Desk crew went home at about 4 hours before we departed, and left it up to the flight crew to apologise. There was no Jestar employee in the airport at all.

My wife was due to fly from Sydney to Perth on QF575 due out at 08:45 last Thursday 22 May, 2008. The flight eventually departed at around 14:55 over 6 hours late.
It was the 743 operating the flight and it was delayed due to water in the cargo hold, as the pilot explained to the passengers. Don't know how it got to be there. Not sure of the registration as she can never find it even though I explain in great detail where to look. She likes an aisle seat. Enough said. Couldn't find the registration on 16R so I presume that the 743 predate ACARS. Needless to say she missed the afternoon meeting that was part of the reason for travelling. She said that the tech and cabin crew apologised so much that the passengers got sick of it. Seems as though the crew are doing a lot of it of late. The return flight last night from Perth on a 738 was right on time. |

Interesting what would have happened if they'd used the emergency exits to escape - I assume they were back at the gate (with exit slides therefore disarmed ). I think I'd have been calling the Police/the media/both by then anyway!
