On-Time Part 2

Not content with making him sit in the airport at home for an hour, once he manageed to get on a plane in Chicago, about 30 minutes late, United then made the Main Distractor (among, one assumes, others) sit in the airplane for about an hour on the ground.

Gee, I wonder what I can do to make him feel better when he finally, finally gets here?

On-Time

My Main Distractor is en route to me. Waiting at his home airport, scheduled to depart at 14:05 local. The time is now 14:43 local, and he’s still on the ground…he may have boarded though.

The kicker is that his airport’s flight tracker lists the departure time as 14:05 local, albeit still on the ground, and the airline’s flight tracker still has an estimated departure time of 14:05, and an estimated arrival time 9 minutes before scheduled arrival. I’m pretty confident that since he’s taking off approximately 40 minutes late, he ain’t gonna arrive early.

Good thing you have that two-hour layover at ORD, babe.
