Edit: once i was asked to explain why we took a delay for this situation.
Simple explanation of mx and wx delays and nutrition requirements. Non event.
Unfortunately a lot of Capts here don’t think that way, and I blame JB mgmt on some of it, but JB Capts are some of the weakest guys I have flown with in my career so far (3 airlines). They are more concerned about getting out 15 mins early and saving gas. They get talked down to by gate agents, ramp agents, and take sh!t from just about anybody and rush all the time! Not all CAs here like that, but most guys I fly with a are very, very weak.... and thats how we ended up with this crap CBA!
