“And the carrier was responsible for 8% of its delayed flights according to the Transportation Department. That’s about the same as delays caused by problems like congestion and weather, and compares with an average of 5.1% for the dozen U.S. airlines tracked.”

Been saying for a while our house is not in order and mgmt is pointing at everyone else. Can’t cut MX meet and greets, turn times, and staffing and expect to be more on time by boarding 5 minutes early. That initiative does nothing for a delayed plane and only makes an already ontime flight even earlier.
