In these situations, the passengers should demand to be let off, and if
necessary, call the police to say they're being unlawfully detained.

If you know how, arming the door (don't ask for a cross-check) and then
opening it will provide a way of getting down to the ground.

Why? There's nothing particularly dangerous about going down an escape
slide, especially when there's no urgency. The airline would be
seriously annoyed of course, but only because of the cost and
disruption. Next time they'd learn to be more proactive about dealing
with these situations. People cannot lawfully be detained merely because
it's convenient.

Really? Where in any law does it say that you can constrain someone's
freedom to keep them safe?
