SAT to DFW in over 2 Hours in a 737?!?!

Yup. I noticed an Eskimo tail at the airport while driving home today. Knowing that Alaska doesn’t fly into our fair city, I decided to track it’s diversion. ASA812 diverted to KSAT due to weather in the Metroplex. This is the continuation of the flight back to DFW trying to avoid the storms on the way back. It normally takes less than an hour to fly to DFW from here.
