The flight was delayed by 14 hours, they rebooked as many they could, still had passengers, and flew the flight. Now the greenies are up in arms.

Had they canceled the flight, the people waiting for the plane there would have had their flight canceled, creating a ripple effect in the scheduling for at least a day or two.

I can guarantee that there was cargo on that plane that, coupled with the returning passengers, made the trip worth it.

i agree with some of the comments on the article. like attacking people who own private jets and make a billion trips a year around the world carrying 2-10 people. if i had my way that wouldnt be allowed! but if i had my way hopefully that would be avoided entirely because people wouldnt be so ignorant to do that
