We were stuck on the ground for 45 minutes. The rains had come into Prague and they were using one runway fewer.

The pilot came on to the PA and first thing he said was that people can get up, stretch and use the restrooms. No problems. And then he invited any young kid to come up and have a look at the cockpit!! Seven kids holding their parents’ fingers went up. It was a heart warming scene. Most of us were so amused waving at the kids that we did not feel the pain of the wait!!
