May I have your attention please
Your flight has been delayed—again
You will remain here—terminal
Not moving forward to you final destination
Not going back to where you were
Estimated departure cannot be determined
The journey will continue to the end point—soon
There are no more details right now on day or time
Remain seated, do not approach the counter
We are unable to book you on another flight
Your time to depart will be revealed—later
Everyone at this gate is scheduled to leave—eventually
Although seated in proximity to one another
Your takeoff and landing will be unique to your itinerary
Some may have to clear customs
Everyone will arrive safely, beliefs intact
Safe travels.
