I was a passenger on that flight (coming back from a crew swap after a lonnnnng day).

The cabin power kicked off halfway thru the flight, and like you said, the CA announced that had lost our generators and that we were on APU power. Diverted to MCI just fine, on our way again with a different 757 after an hour or two. The flight crew continued the trip, but one or two F/As swapped out (I assume due to duty issues).

I was thinking about cornering one of the pilots and asking about what happened, but I was WAY too tired to really care at that point and I didn't want to bother them. Seemed like they did a fine job.

I only saw the first half of Nacho Libre when this tragedy occurred, so I was forced to switch to my own backup system (iPod) in the darkness of the cabin that fateful night. Just as well, since the movie sucked. Bad.
