A midnight correction

I arrived in Delhi a couple of hours ago by a late-night flight on Jet Airways. The plane landed where the international flights do, and after we got down, a bus was taking us all to the domestic arrival terminal. It was the longest bus ride ever. So I turned and said to the gentleman besides me:

"This is the longest bus ride ever."

He looked at me carefully, thought for a bit, and said:

"No, it's not."

Joy.
