I was about to mention this one - on our way to RDU a few weeks ago the trip was a breeze, a delayed departure but once we boarded, we took off promptly from AUS and the flight was a little more than 2 hours. Coming back to AUS we departed after a delay (plane was coming from IAD or DCA the weekend of the big snowstorm up there) and the flight was about 4 due to headwinds and some kind of weird routing (the pilots mentioned we went way out of the way of their usual route). Lots of stir crazy people by the time we finally landed.
