Amen to THAT!


- May 16, PEK-EWR
- Landed 1 hour early
- Had to wait for originally assigned gate to vacate
- That gate's plane went MX, so we waited for gate next to it
- Both gates became available at the same time

Summary: 20 minutes late!


Interestingly, Flightaware has the flight landing 1hr early, and 28 minutes early to gate, which is bogus.
