Originally posted by Richard Duxbury View PostI think many airlines would rather just cancel the flight than take the risk of a big fine. Often they use the excuse of weather -and perhaps do not have to worry about food and overnight expenses for the passengers? (Well, often it is weather related and perhaps not at that specific airport)..
Regards, Dux -perhaps BP's for a brief visit this Saturday but have to leave at 11:50.

I retired about a year and half ago... so I'm not totally current. But the procedure was to restart the 4 hour clock by offering the opportunity to get off the airplane. That was the main fallback, instead of canceling. It is no fun sitting and waiting, but sometime [OprahFrozenChickenShooting][OprahFrozenChickenShooting][OprahFrozenChickenShooting][OprahFrozenChickenShooting] happens. There are so many airplanes and so few airports. It is amazing that the whole thing works as smoothly as it does anyway.
