So for those of us who can't take being stuck in a coach seat for four hours without food or bathrooms have to suffer because you can and simply looking for the fastest arrival time? I may have a canceled flight and be stuck in the airport, but at least I can go to the bathroom and not get DVT from being stuck in a cramped seat.

Personally I am appalled that we even have to make a regulation for this. What the heck difference is a flight being delayed for four hours in the airport going to be that they have to cancel it when they don't when it is on the runway? I just don't get the argument that this is going to cause more flights to be canceled. Seems more like vengeance tan anything else to me.

And keep in mind the bit about how late a flight is says nothing about how long it sits on the runway, it just says that the airline cant claim it usually takes x amount of time when in reality it usually takes much longer because of waits. Teh simple solution - again if they really wanted a solution, is to just print the arrival time as that much later. No change in flying time, just what is advertised.
