That's unavoidable. You can argue that KLM could for example reorganize operations so that a planebeing delayed from Dublin will not mean it's subsequent planned leg to Stockholm is also delayed. But not that being delayed out of Amsterdam, KLM can somehow magic up an aircraft in Dublin before the inbound lands...
Yeah, but what if the delay in aircraft rotation was caused by poor weather conditions the day before? Because the weather was fine on Friday and to me it seemed that they simply had a huge backlog from the day before, that's why all the flights were delayed.
Where does the limit go? How many days / hours? In theory, they could have a never ending chain of delays in aircraft rotations and blame it all on poor weather some day in the past...
