"Of course, sir--you are welcome to de-plane and purchase food from the airport concessions. You will not be allowed back on the aircraft, so you will have to make alternate travel arrangements, but you will indeed have your food!"

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers -
Of course, if the passenger deplanes, it holds up the flight for everyone else. Not just getting into a gate, but getting that passenger's luggage off the plane. Personally I don't care (and the airline staff probably doesn't either) if the passenger ever sees his luggage again, but for security reasons checked baggage can't be allowed on a flight if the passenger it belongs to isn't on board.
If it's an operational issue (too much baggage, or too tight a connection, so the baggage gets put on the next flight) that the passenger couldn't know about, I understand that exceptions are made, but baggage that is unaccompanied as a result of the passenger's choice is not permitted.Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.Comment

Ah, yes, the bad old days when gas was cheap, security was minimal, and holding patterns were forever...
I remember once living through a ground hold of 2 or 3 hours, after having been in a holding pattern forever. (At O'Hare, of course.) Ca. 1975. In retrospect, I feel so sorry for what the cabin and cockpit crews must have gone through.I don’t have enough middle fingers to show you how I feel about you.

Don't forget that the handlers might not be holding tightly enough on the leashes of the dogs sniffing for explosives.
