Its frustarting for the crews and more for the passengers.Everyone was focused on the contract and now that it seems to be worked out, are there any planned changes to ops,better gate agents ,etc to make things run smoother? Just seems like daily confusion on a regular basis.When i was at the regionals,it was a constant shiddd show almost daily.I didnt expect the same here,looks like i was wrong.Why dont the suits in Wilis Tower do some thing to fix some of this stuff?
Fixing operational problems cost money, reducing share holder returns.
