Bill de Blasio kept more than 100 people waiting for a commercial flight from JFK Airport to Puerto Rico because he was running late.
The revelation will do nothing to alleviate New York's mayor of his reputation for tardiness.
Passengers including city officials and holidaygoers had no idea why the boarding gate remained closed for 20 minutes after it was due to open on November 6. Finally, de Blasio arrived with an entourage of security, and the JetBlue flight was deemed ready for boarding.
The mayor and his security were seated first before others were allowed to board.
It has since emerged, in documents obtained by DNAinfo New York, that airport officials were ordered to hold the plane by de Blasio's NYPD security squad who radioed over.

20 New Yorkers elected him, ... IIRC, only 28% of the registered electorate in the 5 NYC boroughs bothered to vote in the 2013 mayoral election.

So NYPD trumps FAA now? A cop had his forearm pinched across the plane's fuel line. That plane wasn't going anywhere. < /sarc>

Very likely, the majority of those passengers voted for the azzhole, and they're likely to vote for him again in the next 2 elections.
You can't fix stupid.
