Not to mention the giant loophole so big you can drive an A380 through it: issues outside of the carrier's control. While mainline is subject to the same "outside issues", recovery is far better there.

That is, when bad weather screws up LGA, it's always my connection-operated flight that gets canceled, and usually not the mainline operated routes.
