Waiting for a delayed IAD-LHR flight and overheard an FA say, “… and Group 1 is over HALF the plane…”

110 minute delay and counting.

Also what the heck with IAD-LHR flights? Last January, my IAD-LHR flight was canceled after six hours because (1) it was the inauguration and “IAD is prioritizing private jets”; (2) our jet was supposedly iced to the ramp, and then when they got it de-iced, (3) the tug broke on the runway.

Just me, or are AA/BA codeshares more reliable?
