I have done quite a bit of traveling this month. My most recent trip was to Washington DC, where on my 2nd flight from Salt Lake City I had a 4 hour delay...due to a mechanical problem on the plane...

Yeah the lavatory in 1st class was malfunctioning...insert potty jokes here. Anyway the airline has us board the plane and then informed us the Potty problem was not fixed... so we sat on the plane for nearly an hour...by law they have to let you off the plane within 3 hrs... It ended up being a 4 hour delay and ended up on another plane..Thank goodness not sure where those 1st class passengers were going to pee...
