I haven't heard this from anyone but you, and I'm assuming you're not here.

United passengers are directly affected from the poor performance of commutair. There has been a lot of people unhappy with commutair that it hopefully will create the impetus needed to shed this partner from UAX.

So while the FAA isn't concerned about on time they are concerned with the issues on going at commutair with respect to all of the emergency declarations and various operational issues surrounding the carrier.

No one is leap frogging a system. People are playing with the cards that have been dealt. Going to C5 solely for the United CPP, however, would be very foolish. You need sound other reasons to come here.
