This is the part I don't understand. In a previous article she claimed she reboarded because she was assured there would not be further delays. But if the plane pushed back from the gate 12 minutes later, were there really further delays? And if she left the plane in the first place because her infant was becoming ill, why would she want to reboard whether the plane was taking off or not? You still have nearly a two-hour flight to El Paso ahead of you, plus the time it takes to deboard.
