Historical Airline Delays

[pad406]

Back in March, I got stuck overnight in PHL due to, what the Airline classed as weather. Honestly we were all at bit bemused as there was no snow on the ground, no storm visible and other planes were taking off.

So, to cut a very long story short, I did some subsequent digging and eventually found the American Bureau of Transportation Statistics have detailed archives on airports and airlines. Using this, I discovered that after our flight was due to depart, the same Airline dispatched 24 flights over the next 2.5 hours. I have now raised a case with the Airline and am going to use this as ammunition. Early days yet, but I am going to keep at them.

So this is a LINK to the site in case anyone else might find it useful.
