"The US Transportation Department said the crew on the flight, which was operated by ExpressJet Airlines for Continental, repeatedly sought permission to offload their 47 passengers at the airport in Rochester, Minnesota in the early hours of August 8.
Instead, they were stuck on the ground for nearly six hours with just snacks to eat, after the local representative of Mesaba Airlines erroneously cited security rules for refusing to allow the passengers off the plane."
