Newswatcher, i wasn't referring to you at all, infact didn't mention your name once, it was just a general comment.

I have had passengers that find it quite alright to be on a flight arriving at 1400 and their connecting flight leaving at 1410, it happens quite a lot yet they don't seem to understand that the gate their connecting flight is leaving from might be a bit of a walk away! It is a completely different situation if the actual airline says "yes, you will have time between flights", where really you don't. It is just a little bit of common sense to allow yourself time between flights and that doesn't mean 10 minutes.

It's the same as passengers turning up to check-in 15 minutes before flight departure and being told the flight has closed, yet they don't understand why they can't check-in if the plane isn't due to leave for another 15 minutes. If only people stopped to think for just one minute.
