No institution experiences as many thunderstorms as an airline. Huge, violent clouds surround airline employees at all times. They cannot hold company picnics, because the death toll from lightning strikes would be in the hundreds. In practical terms, what this means for you, the traveler, is that when planning your airplane trip this summer, you should take into consideration the fact that your flight will never actually take off. Of course the airline will not tell you this.
Airlines have a strict policy of never revealing flight information to passengers.
Say you have a ticket for a flight that's scheduled to depart at 6 p.m. Do not blame them for misleading you. Sometimes I think the airlines don't really own any airplanes. Recently, I was scheduled to take a flight from Miami to Chicago. Of course the airline said the flight was on time.
