It’s funny that you say this.

I took a 20 minute delay on departure and a 20 minute delay on arrival a couple of days ago in Denver because we didn’t have a ground crew. Redeye turn. 10pm departure and 0430 arrival.

I would think that if we really care about ontime performance, having adequate ramper staffing would be low hanging fruit.
