And to people living in cities with B6 operation, their numbers are only slightly below average.
No one knows what DL's on-time performance would be in BOS/JFK if 75% of their flights were out of there because that's not the case. DL has a heavy operation out of DTW and MSP both of which have just as bad if not worse weather than BOS/JFK, and DL still manages to have a high on-time performance. Once again, I am simply stating the DOT facts. It doesn't matter where they are flying into and out of the fact is they simply do not have a good on-time performance.
