126 JetBlue passengers spend 7 hours on tarmac!!!

I understand logistical problems, but be creative. You don't need a gate. As stated you need about 3 or 4 buses. Even when no buses are available, let them go down stairs and be escorted into the terminal via the baggage facilities. By the way it doesn't take 7 hours to get a gate open. The passengers are already screened. Take them inside where there are human facilities (heat, lights, bathrooms). 7 hours is just stupidity on the airlines part. And JetBlue's nonsense about safety is just that..nonsense. Charge the airline with unlawful abductions and captivity.
no flights on Jet Blue for me or my family EVER!
No gate? Just call a charter bus company for a couple of bus's, let the passengers deplane down the stairs and walk thru a little snow to a heated bus and then to the terminal. No problem.
Its an organizational nightmare. There may not be a gate and crew for one thing, and then when they do get to the gate, who will process the passengers? The other option Just open the doors out on the ramp and let people mill around amongst airport vehicles and other airplanes and just have a free for all in BDL. I do not agree with 7-hours, but sometimes 7-hours occurs in about 7-minutes!
they think that is bad?.. now try putting 700 people on a Transaero A380...
yeh, guess they could have dumped them on the tarmac.
