wow. 4%?
It seems that I was very lucky then that my connection from FRA to DEN was only a little late - I had no idea it was that bad.
Although I had talked to somebody at the gate who had been at the airport for the entire day, trying to get to DEN too...

..sigh..
Not a single kiosk was functioning this morning in the shuttle terminal at LGA.
6 months after res migration was "completed" ... Very sad.

And good weather - I happened to notice that the FAA didn't have an ATC ground stop/delay program at any time anywhere in the country all day that Sunday. Monday was relatively back to normal with ATC stops/delays in the NYC area (JFK, LGA, EWR), BOS, IAD, Chicago (ORD, MDW), and Dallas (DFW).

AA: DFW 87, ORD 90, MIA 73, LAX 84, JFK 84, LGA 98, STL 96
UA: ORD 90, DEN 87, SFO 93, LAX 97, IAD 86
DL: ATL 88, SLC 96, JFK 82, CVG 96
NW: DTW 94, MSP 96, MEM 95

AS: SEA 82, ANC 84
B6: JFK 97
F9: DEN 92
and, drumroll.....
US West: PHX 92, LAS 97
US East: CLT 64, PHL 55
So, EVERY problematic hub operation in the nation, from EWR to ORD to all three JFK'ers, had a delightful set of numbers that day, except for the two you-know-wheres....
take out the third-worst op (MIA, where AA's terminal construction has reduced taxi-out space considerably, even on the holiday weekend), and we get the distinct impression that US East lags its competitors by between 20 and 40 percentage points.

I think it is amazing how the US East hubs cannot get to "industry standard" anymore, despite better weather and summer coming to an end.
I actually look forward to these dismal reports, because they contradict what the Sandcastle says in their spin to the media.
We all feel good about US, right? 10-59% is good, right?

If Tempe were smart (I know, no comments....) they'd intentionally do what the departure delays are forcing - de-peak PHL and CLT. The hubs would function a lot better, they could remove a lot of the pad from the schedules, get better airplane/crew utilization, save a ton of money, and lower CASM.
But what do I know.........

I was at YYZ last week, and asked the check-in agent why there were no kiosks. He pointed to a bank of common-use kiosks in the center of the hall, with a notation that US is not yet "up and running" on them. I asked if they were "up and running" on them prior to the Shares cutover, and he responded "yes."
Totally unacceptable that 6+ months after the cutover US has not figured out how to get back online with the common-use kiosks.
