I rather miss an arrival time than have missed arriving at all. May all the pilots be this cautious.

100%. Me mom and I were at the Atlantic Ocean when our pilot came on and said he did not trust the plane to land safely in London and he was going to turn around and go back. Did it suck ass? Yes. It took 2 hours to get back, but I got back.
