One mainline flight delayed that has a enough connections on it can send a huge ripple effect through the system. CAL decides when certain planes leave.
I don't need it explained to me how a regional operates out of a busy hub. We operate of out IAH, ATL, PHL, LGA, IAD, ORD, etc. I was simply saying that block times are built on historical averages. Therefore regardless of what happens it should be accounted for for the most part. Of course things will happen from time to time but then again that all just calculates into the grand scheme of things.
Doesn't really matter though as far as Larry goes he likes CHQ and wants to continue business. He did say he doesn't like seeing people DHDing around so I'll just keep my fingers crossed on my IAH 145 base
