I would have loved to have waited out the storm at the A, but we were #2 for takeoff when the airport closed. I really want to say that the crew did an excellent job of keeping the hordes (on a full old 767) entertained for 2 hours on the tarmac. The captain invited people to the cockpit, they showed a movie, and of course brought out the beverages and all the almonds/pretzels you could handle. I sure was glad to be in FC, but it appeared that everyone in coach was comfortable. The good news was we were up and away as soon as the storm passed and only 3 hours late to PBI. Could have been much worse.
