Damn Shape. That sounded really stressful. Look on the bright side though. At least you were flying to England, not China. I took a 14 hour flight to Shanghai, and we stopped at the Shanghai airport. We were supposed to wait 1 hour before boarding another plane to Beijing. After already flying 14 hours, you can just imagine how hectic it was. But, we recieved news that Beijing had a heavy storm, and we stayed in the airport for 10 hours!! On total, I spent like 26 hours on my flight to Beijing. (Shanghai to Beijing is 2 hours)
