feh! That made me curious about looking up delay stats

by airline because it seems like Southwest hasn't been having the same kind of problems with delays as other airlines. And it looks like I'm right. They're not great but they've been on time for over 80% of flights vs. 72.65% for all reporting airlines.

From what I've read, this summer has been one of the worst on record for flight delays.

yes, absolutely. But whenever I've read the scary stories, or heard the anecdotes from flying friends, Southwest is never a culprit airline. So I was curious about the actual stats. I flew southwest last week and was sure that we'd have delays coming back because we had two layovers (trippling...trebling? wha? ... our chances of being delayed in taking off). But every leg was fine and we ended up getting back here like 15 minutes early.

Southwest is almost always a good option for me though because they have a hub here and go most places I'd need to fly.

Yeah one of the highlights so far today was the kid in front of me at the security check throwing up all over the scanner. This was after they had distinctly said no liquids.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Sorry for the firedrill, everyone! Thanks for the shoulder.

At least you erred in the right direction.
