I've been delayed for 6+ hours in one sitting.
I still love to fly.
Honestly the intricacies and complications that arise would stun any flyer if they had the slightest clue on how everything hinges on going just right. When Mother Nature screws up plans everyone gets pissy at the airlines, when they're holding tight to ensure planes don't risk it and end up killing hundreds of people.
To me that's the same as yelling at the guy in front of you when traffic is going 10mph on the highway because it's a blizzard during rush hour. Yeah I still do it, but it's pointless.
