Well, that's nice to hear. It's odd that I had the exact opposite experience on Sunday. I was sitting on the plane waiting for push back in YYZ bound for MIA. Departure time passed. No push back, no announcement. There wasn't a word until 25 minutes after departure time. The delay was because we were on a 763 that had been bound for Tel Aviv the previous night. That flight had been cancelled. They had to remove the excess fuel. Is the simple courtesy of an announcement at/before dept time too much to expect?

I guess this is just another illustration of the one quality AC seems to really pride themselves on: Inconsistency
