I hate it when that happens. It happened to me on a few occasions. I
know, the pilot would never circle the airport to let the movie
finish. Personally I'd rather circle the airport to let it finish. I
'd never rent it to see it just the last 10 minutes.


Coming in to this pretty late, we were flying Boston - Chicago, and the
flight took longer than scheduled, and there still wasn't time to finish
the movie! This was an afternoon flight.

The flight time from BOS-ORD is about 863 miles.. What movie?
I didn't think a flight of under 2 hours would have a movie.

ATA Logan - Midway, that's about 3 hours 10 minutes. I don't remember the
movie's name, who cares? They shouldn't show movies that are too long for
the flight, surely?
