@gamemasterdls68, I am sorry that this delay happened to you. Having been a frequent traveler for work for decades, I have been frustrated with many different incidents and airlines. I was very relieved when the Department of Transportation passed rules and penalties in 2010 which discouraged airlines from loading passengers on a plane and making them sit for 4-5 hours waiting for take-off because I had that happen to me more than once (but my two incidents were on other airlines). It feels better to endure the delays in the terminal than on the tarmac. As a tax geek, I have to point out that Mr. Kelly’s income level puts him in a tax bracket that means he is more likely to be audited by the IRS than the average person, and the 1998 IRS Restructuring and Reform Act Section 1203 protects taxpayers from acts of retaliation from IRS employees. Air travel can be rough and it seems like you had one of those trips. I hope future travels are smoother for you.
