So I just got a phone call from my mom this morning. My dad had been flying standby from Houston to Seattle this morning. And about fifteen minutes into the flight, one of the engines exploded. So they had to turn around and head back to Houston to land. Everybody was fine, and they got shuffled onto other flights. The upside to dad's story is that he had upgraded his first flight to first class for an extra $20, and on the new flight he was on was the really nice first class where the seats turn into beds.
