That's nice and all
There's something wrong with this story:
TEHRAN, Iran - Fifteen British sailors and marines held captive for nearly two weeks left Iran early Thursday aboard a commercial flight bound for London, ending a standoff a day after Iran's president announced their surprise release.
The British crew sat in business class on the British Airways flight that departed Mehrabad International Airport around 8:30 a.m. local time (1 a.m. EDT), an Associated Press reporter at the scene reported.
No first class for these guys? Come on! They only got abducted and threatened with execution. I'm pretty sure American hostages get flown out on, like, Air Force One or something.
