Stuck in a plane , that well

Kabul Airport
Flight 401 Ariana Airlines , from Kabul to Dubai, via Kandahar
It could be worse but i doubt it, we have been stuck on the runway for two hours due to weather in Kandahar , the cockpit crew are screaming in Turkish at the local authorities , as it is a charter operated flight, and the plane is putrid and hot , the whole thing stinks like a bad drawer of unwashed socks in summer and there is no air con on the plane .
Not exactly a way to spend the day but hope above hope we get out of this god forsaken place .
Just announced , flight cancelled to kandahar , now they have to empty the plane
Maybe we will make Dubai

God forsaken place...common expression but in this case your discription is appropriate...it fits. Our concerns, thoughts and prayers are with you and all good men stuck there.
