Interesting question number 8

Why is it that airline flights can be hours late or not fly at all when if the bus is 5 minutes late the world gets it's shorts in an uproar?

Do airlines have a built-in lateness quotient that allows them to fly in at out at any old time regardless of what the schedule says and make up some cock-eyed excuse such as the wrong sort of cloud? They are worse than the railways used to be.

I'm grumbling because my poor wife is stuck in Lyon because of some mysterious event which has screwed up fights through Amsterdam but I'm going to stop now as this is likely to turn into a rant, which isn't what this blog is supposed to be about.
