Mmm... I like the sound of this story. There appears to be lots of options open as to where it can go. And of course that must be in an engaging, interesting way. Writing is quite well done and lays out the frustrations of each passenger. I am interested to read more.

I feel cheated that I didn't get to meet the other 4 characters! Great opening. Lots of intrigue in each of the stories and great characterisation. Well done!
