Sorry but if the company truly wants better reporting on delays, hire people to do just that. Have supervisors who ensure flights go out on time and report why when they aren’t, instead of stacking the pressure on one contract gate agent to do it.
I’m sorry but it’s getting tiresome with the continued crap that gets tossed on us because they literally won’t hire the people to run an airline.
Repeat after me…
“We need rampers at (insert gate)”
“Waiting on a jet bridge driver”
“Waiting on paperwork”
“Disconnect the air, it’s hot”
“Any idea when the gate will be open?”
Day after day, year after year, we keep saying those same phrases and now we are told if we only make detailed delay reports, it will help fix it. Haha. Sure
Sorry Teddy, when you’re done playing Monopoly Millions, you have an airline to run. Until then, call me Capt Bare Minimum
Oh, I agree 100%. (I'm the guy who said "I'll provide details.") But if they want detailed delay reports, I'll happily give them and I won't hold back on the myriad of reasons.
Half the time the gate has already just blamed the FA's.
