What, you just having fun putting little ol AW in their place? Aw good for you.

then why is every time I attempt to commute on AW does the flight go out late, cancels or has MX issues? This is MKE-ORD.

Being reliant on a bunch of old clapped out 200s to accomplish that isn’t something I see Bezos doing . He would probably go buy something new to fill that void if he so desired. In addition, the dispatch reliability of these things is atrocious right now and getting worse every day .

Point of information:

Bezos is no longer in charge.

I know a few pilots at AW, all good people, I don’t wish anything bad towards your company.

You’re being incredibly condescending.

Mx base. Reliability is always going to be an issue when they’re relying on maintenance being finished on time to get to the flights out.

And that is a huge inconvenience for UA passengers and a cost that UA won’t put up with forever.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . You asked why there are issues out of MKE, I told you why there are issues out of MKE that aren’t issues in the rest of the system. Look at any regional MX base, this isn’t a uniquely ZW problem. You’d have the same issue commuting out of SBN on Skywest.

Nah, you just have to be able to put a reasonable percentage up on the board. No way with AW nearly matching OO in every performance metric could they grow and not pull substantially far behind. It says a lot that such a small operation with only one contractor could even be having so many delay issues.

Take a look at commutair’s performance lately. It’s absolutely horrific/embarrassing as they’ve started to grow their operations. They’re are literally dead last in every performance metric available. I think they’re up to a 20k new hire bonus now because they know it’s so bad.

👆 This has been the entire point I’ve been making from my initial reply post and for some reason you’re having a tough time comprehending what I’m attempting to get through your head.
