Ok. That Jet Blue video I was talking about earlier with the passengers wanting to get off. Here’s what happened. They were supposed to land at JFK, but because of weather, they couldn’t. The pilots made 4 attempts and just couldn’t stick it. So they turned and landed in Newark. Apparently those four attempts made people feel sick and scared and, according to the guy on the video, faint. Several passengers are standing and making their displeasure known to the stewardess. Luckily, they weren’t being real jerks, but they were making it clear they wanted to get off the plane there in Newark. They did not want to stay on that plane any longer with the way it was being flown. They felt it was dangerous. People were scared. From what I understand, they all had to stay on the plane and eventually flew back to Newark, but it was 7 hours late.

The guy who shot the video says they were each given $50 Jet Blue credits for their trouble.
