This will only work if IFPS/CFMU kick airline ass. At the airfields, we are already trying our best to keep everything on track - it's the airlines who are not playing ball.
BTW, although most Companies at LL have been guilty in the past, its not the Biggest Airline that causes us most grief with late/multiple refiles - its a select few of our European shorthaul operators who cause the worst headaches.
If the refile scenario doesn't sort out a delay, the old trick of adding "hosp flt" used to be the next step - seems to have fallen out of favour at present.
