Just going to mention that for any of you looking for some light at the end of the tunnel regarding CLE flights, I've noticed a lot more of them recently being operated by Jazz Q400s. Whether that's good news or not I'll leave up to you to decide
A RW33 or 15 operation will always result in delays because the airport's normal volume is designed for the 3 East/West parallels. On 33's like last night there is one departure and one arrival runway (with a few offloads from arrival to departure RW every hour - usually heavies) so the landing rate takes a massive hit and aircraft have to be delayed on the ground and the whole thing starts to back up and things go wonky very quickly.
