They hustled to Customs only to find they had to pay for a hotel to watch their flight take off.
Was 22:30 the actual delay or the posted delay? My understanding, only from what the gate agent told me, is they won't post the delay as later than 21:00 regardless of what it really turns out to be. Either way, US CBP closes at 21:00 so that would explain why they got stuck.
