      Pilot as soon as we lans: "How and when your journey to Kennedy will take place I don't know at this moment." He did say they're giving us free bus rides though so there's that.

      Sorry for the wait! You can blame T Mobile for that. (More on that later.) Let me fill you in on what happened in the last hour or so...

      Pilot said he doesn't know yet how we can get off the plane because it's his first time at this airport and "we don't have the radio frequency here." What the fuck?

      Then pilot said we need to stay in the plane "for now" (that was 2 hours ago) because immigration is holding us because the airport is too full of people. Now that I'm out I can report that SWF or Stewart has roughly half a dozen gates and literally four desks for CBP.

      People get up to leave. We're leaving! Or are we? Rumors spread that some people are leaving. More people get up and line up. "How are they choosing who leaves and who doesn't?" I ask. Guy behind me says: "Apparently it's a fight to death!" Lol, I guess?

      It was a false alarm. Immigration apparently told the crew that we can't leave because there's still not enough space for us inside the airport. "Better wait inside" pilot says matter of factly, without saying what everyone knows: it's fucking cold outside.

      .@CustomsBorder if you're reading this, in my defense I'm not the only one thinking that and he once called all Mexicans rapists. Just saying.

      For those of us worried about me. Don't. I have a kick ass opening line to get the agent to like me.
