Or do you build enough slack time in the schedules (e.g. arriving a day earlier) to handle most delays?
My experience is that the airline looks after me. I don't bother with slack time. If I am delayed--particularly overseas, I just get a hotel room. I seldom check bags, so I don't have a problem in that department.
