Another thing forget to mentions: How do you get paid?

Another story of mine I have to tell, I am sorry if it get boring.

The story start with.......

I Hate HOUSTON or I should hate Delta Airline. So i was flying back from Salt Lake City to Boston thru Houston. I was on a small planes that unusally fly from Cleveland to Washington's distance. The whole flight is about 2 hours and 50 minutes from SLC to Houston. With an hour away from Houston, the pilot told us that Houston airport is closed due to weather. Eventually, the pilot told us every 5 minutes with the airport runways cleared and being shut down. Finally, the pilot mentions, we will have to fly surround Houston for 45 mins, however, our plane does not have enough fuel to surround for 45 mins. As a result, we will go to Austin, Texas and wait for the runways clear up and we need to add more fuel. So at Austin, we were there for about 3 hours. I was sitting on the last row and the flight attendent were sitting there, so we have a good chat. She is a mom at SLC that only fly the route from SLC to Houston. I was asking why is the door open because it was summer and the plane is getting hot. She stated that the when the plane is on the ground, they have to leave the door open. It is Delta's policy. She mentioned that they got pay only when the plane's door shut.

On the same day or the one after, Delta declare bankrupty with Northwest Airline.
