You have to understand the science behind the numbers to fully understand the operation, and vice-versa. Many thanks to the scheduling committee for sending those pretty, colorful graphs that explain our month-to-month flying hours. Combine that with our staffing levels and our performance information on the intranet, you can get a pretty good grasp of everything that's going on. You should try it out sometime.
I give up.

2-week notice forthcoming.

Haven't seen worst than 6 out of 9 the entire month. Despite what I have to say about the company, the operation is actually getting better (for a variety of reasons).
I had a dead head to EWR on OCT 17 on CA 4922 , departure time was 12:41, that is probably when we started boarding. Pushed from the gate 13:05, we sat in the penalty box until 13:55, Captain told us it was a ATC flow issue, I suspect it was due to missing the 12:41 departure. With that being said kudos to the crew for landing 0nly 15 minutes late in EWR.

Not necessarily, even if they closed the doors on time there was still a high chance of sitting in the penalty box for an hour or more. Nice catch up with time tho, they flew that jet ass off lol

To be fair, this happens to everyone going into the big hubs. None of the major hub airports in the US were designed to handle the volume of traffic they now receive. So us small guys typically sit and wait longer.

We are a much smaller operation than Republic. Also, a single cancelled flight for maintenance would immediately put is back to #8 of 9 because of our poor D:0 and A:14.

100% CCF is regarded as most important to whoever makes CommutAir's score card, and that is the only reason we are ranked higher than Republic. But 0.03% higher CCF is not an indicator of overall performance. Overall, our performance is considerably worse than Republic's.

Some more perspective. I could post this using Gojet, MESA, Air Wisconsin, TSA etc. and the numbers would look about the same.

Republic
Avg Dly Deps 317
CCF 99.9%
Star0 91.9%
D0 78.6%
A14 84.9%
Cancellations 2.2


CommutAir (Versus Republic)
Avg Dly Deps 128 (-189)
CCF 100% (+0.03%)
Star0 88.0% (-3.9%)
D0 70.4% (-8.2%)
A14 75.0% (-9.9%)
Cancellations 1.1 (-1.1)
^^(Consider that Republic has operated about 2,688 more flights than CommutAir so far this month.)

Can't argue with that!

(As I sit on a 5+ hour sit due to flying removed for IOE, yet I still had to report early for no reason whatsoever.)

How are you guys finding these numbers for United? I have access to Flying Together and have been trying to find them for a while. I'm interested to see were AWAC falls in this fight.
