Last time I flew with TAP I spent 8.5 hours in Lisbon waiting for my flight. It was 6 hours before they would even supply us with water (and this was very late at night and everything was closed in the airport)!

Then again I flew Etihad (wannabe Emirates airline) recently and was 8 hours late with them as well, but they were much worse as they just bare-faced lied to us about helping us catch a connection, they nearly caused us to miss it instead.
