I'm routinely on the 5AM C9 OMA-MSP and we seem to ALWAYS sit there waiting for 10+ minutes for the ground crew to come to guide the aircraft in to the parking mark. It is no secret that every department at NW has been cut back to almost alarmingly tight crews and assets. When this happens I find it hard to be sympathetic when the airlines complain about the cost of jet fuel.

It's a 31 minute flight. We taxied for 40 minutes, then waited for the
ground crew to show. That took 15 minutes.
A 40-minute taxi, wow. Maybe the crew needed some remedial training.
I sure hope that is not indicative of the Notre Dame offense this season.
