Missing Slots
Hey, I work for an airline but unfortunately I'm stuck in the back dealing with documentation and manuals (they'll kill me one day I swear).
I'm trying to get to grips with how slot times work. Specifically, how they're issued and what the procedure is if an a/c misses one. How much of an inconvenience it is to you and the a/c behind.
I always read the flight delay updates on our intranet system and so often the reason given is "Missed ATC Slot". Obviously we've taken too long boarding or fueling or the crew arrived late or whatever. So what happens on your end?
