Pilot update

Pilot update at hour 4.5 of our wait: "No planes have left the airport this morning, but we’re number eight in the queue when the weather clears enough." Wisely, I think, he’s omitting any guess as to how long we’ll have to wait. One of the other passengers told Andrea that Indian rules have none relating to how long they can hold passengers on a plane or whether there is any compensation. I’m betting that if there is, it’ll be a voucher for use on future Air India flights.
