Mild Suckage: Stuck at airport for 8 hours

I arrived at SFO connecting to PVG (Shanghai Pudong) @ 11:30 AM. I found out my flight was delayed by FIVE HOURS!!!

NSS part: They tried to reroute me through Tokyo NRT on ANA and when that didn't work, they gave me access to the airport lounge. They were nice enough about that since I was like the only one who sympathized with their position.

Well, then being stuck at the airport kinda sucks, 'cause you are off the clock.
But remember it's the journey that matters, not the destination. So airport time is just a part of the vacation.
