| Air Canada learns that hockey trumps flying; delays flight because of Canada/US game
Quote:
VANCOUVER (Reuters) - Canada's largest airline has learned it sometimes has to take a back seat to the country's biggest sporting passion, ice hockey, the head of Air Canada said on Tuesday.
The airline was forced to delay a flight from Vancouver during the 2010 Winter Olympic Games because passengers watching the end of gold medal final on airport televisions ignored repeated calls to board.
"We incurred a flight delay for a reason Air Canada had not yet encountered in over 72 years of existence," chief executive Calin Rovinescu told a business gathering.
The Canadian fans were rewarded for their delay, as the nail-biting end to the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics saw Canada beat arch-rival United States 3-2 in overtime.

You can reschedule your flight, you cant reschedule live hockey.

James Cybulski, a reporter for TSN, was probably on that plane, and he wrote about his experience: http://tsn.ca/blogs/james_cybulski/?id=312031
