i'm leaving on a jet plane.
correction - i should have left on a jet plane one hour and seventeen long minutes ago. instead, i am in the porter lounge dying a slow death by americanos and salted almonds. And I'm going to miss my 1pm meeting.
dear porter airlines
the delayed arrival was bad enough - almost forgiveable. what i cannot forgive is the mechanical problem on the runway and your allowing the 11:00am to Newark to depart before the 10:00am.
sincerely,

this is total BS. I've know how waiting works. I've been waiting for things for almost 30 years now and there is something to be said for respecting sequence.
sequence. def. ORDER. meaning one before the other. ie. (1, 1+1, 1+2, 1+3, 1+4, etc).
I was here first so I should board first. I have places to be.
UGH.

what you desire is a first in first out (FIFO) queue; versus the priority queue that porter air seems to be operating. this implies that the planes do not necessarily depart in order of their planned departure times. i am interested to know how porter, or any other airline for that matter, would assign priority to each flight. i presume it's based on minimizing the total number of delayed flights, ie. if your flight is delayed but the next flight can still depart and arrive on time it will then be assigned a higher priority to yours :(
