Well - one passenger boarded and went to one of the two empty seats. Exasperated captain was heard to say “I had to do all that for one passenger?” But we’re on our way 1h20 late. I’m sure the one person is very grateful. I’d probably have apologized to everyone when I boarded though. Nobody I recognized - but then I don’t recognize many people…

apparently they were traveling internationally to the west coast and suffered two diversions. Wish there was an easy way to see all diverted flights!
