Who knows? We sat for such a long time in the plane by the gate with the engines running. I felt very concerned about the smell of the jet fuel fumes getting sucked into the cabin via the ventilation system and I mourned the impact this moment was having on our environment. Since in the end no one was asked to get off the plane I was left wondering if the amount of fuel that got burnt up while the plane was idling was enough to make the weight difference.
I meant, did they offer passengers cash to leave the aircraft? I’ve had that myself about 20 years ago on a flight from Heathrow (London) to JFK. I got off for £200 plus overnight accommodation and a guaranteed flight the next morning, all of which suited me fine.
