The Airport More Than Likely Was Closed, But Only For Inbound Traffic. Like You Said, The Airport Was Crowded, They Probably Didn't Have Room For Any Additional Airplanes Coming In.

After Sitting Almost 2 Hours They Unloaded The Plane. 15 Minutes Later We Were Told To Load The Plane.
You Can Thank The Lovely Kate Hanni For This BS. If It Weren't For Her Stupid Idea That Every Flight Should Be Subject To Fines If You Sit In Line To Take Off For More Than 3 Hours, You Probably Could Have Just Waited Onboard A Bit Longer Without Wasting The Time To Unload And Then Reload And Would Have Gotten To CLT Sooner.

We Were Told By Agent That Planes, In Charlotte, Were Being Held And That If Any Were Missed Us Airways Would Put Us Up For The Night.
You Were Delayed Due To Weather, In The Future, You Should Know That Airlines Are Not Legally Responsible To Provide Hotel Rooms Or Hold Flights. Don't Ever Bank On Either Of These Things Happening And Always Be Prepared For The Worst.

PS . It's Exhausting To Capitalize Every Word!!
