Management is fully aware of the issues surrounding the bags. I was told they don’t mind taking delays because the bump in revenue has been worth it. They know there will be a learning curve with passengers. Managements stance is take a smaller bag or pay up.

F9 doesn’t make its money on on-time flights. It makes its money on completion factor.

If you’re delayed 30 minutes for bag payments, and there’s a plane waiting 30 minutes for that gate. I’d guess it’s a wash between wages and fuel burn vs the profit from bags. Unless it’s a lot of bags.
I usually average 2-3 hours extra credit a month in waiting for the gate fees . How about others folks on here ?

I thought being on time was a big deal not long ago. I recall management spending a couple weeks in Denver to see why the first flights weren’t leaving on time.

My 35 min delay was for 6 bags, I specifically asked the gate agent. 6x100=600 bucks
hardly worth waiting 35 mins for at the beginning of the day. She got her 5 to 10 dollars a bag, definitely worth her time. 😂 Stepping over dollars to pickup nickels and working on being the worst airline in on time departures as well!!! Low fares done right!!!
