C series looks great. Just seems like a lot of plane for what we need it to do which is go BOS-DCA 7 times a day.
FYI - SWISS flies it’s CS100/300s as many as 12 sectors PER DAY - from 30 minute to 4.5 hour flights.

69% on time LOL. Let’s buy more shares back and keep turn times impossible and block times low. Way to go!

“And the carrier was responsible for 8% of its delayed flights according to the Transportation Department. That’s about the same as delays caused by problems like congestion and weather, and compares with an average of 5.1% for the dozen U.S. airlines tracked.”

Been saying for a while our house is not in order and mgmt is pointing at everyone else. Can’t cut MX meet and greets, turn times, and staffing and expect to be more on time by boarding 5 minutes early. That initiative does nothing for a delayed plane and only makes an already ontime flight even earlier.

Yup. Heck, when I do arrive early, most of the time we just sit and wait for a gate anyhow-not enough staff to run all the gates. But we saved some $ on minimum wage GO and rampers so it’s all good?!!

I have to think they don’t actually care about on time performance. I think they want the public to think so and that all these emails and SOP changes are just a charade. Everyone knows the issue. Can you say parking brake??? The dance we do prior to dropping that thing is almost comical.

Yeah but thank God for the OTP initiative and the OK to Push message. Another solution to a non-existent, or minor issue.

While I totally agree that our “otp” is BS and the management seems to have no clue. It’s ironic that you linked and article pointing out that the rankings are kind of BS and how the big 3 manipulate their numbers

This place is melting down today...

First time I’ve seen, ”stay where you are” message. Usually it’s, “better show up”

Clown show- shouldve cx everything before 1600. But then they'd have to pay protect. Have guys try to show up, but have to call out and lose pay. Pathetic planning as usual- Shocked
