The flight going out left 30 mins late but arrived on time (how do they catch up that time?).
You not worked out yet that they add about 40 mins on to proposed flight times so that they can make themselves look good????


They just go faster. Seriously. That's what the pilot said to us when we were delayed from Cardiff recently.

They do add time onto a journey and they usually fly at a certain speed that has better fuel efficiency but if they are running late then they literally go faster. Pretty much as we do when we are running late. Saying that one of my friends just missed a flight to go skiing for a week in Austria.
