Air France Plane Stuck on Tarmac for 10 Hours

Mar 19th, 2008 | By Jared Blank

An Air France flight headed to Miami from Charles de Gaulle on Monday sat on the tarmac for, get this, 10 hours on Monday because of a maintenance issue.  Oh, and they wouldn’t let the passengers off because deplaning would have taken too long.  On the plus side, unlike US-based airlines, passengers were fed and compensated.  I’m sure that made them feel much better.
