From my experience pax generally don't tend to be overly worried about go arounds
Hmmm disagree. I don't mind as I know the score but I can see the tension rise in the cabin. It's not a minor thing to Joe Public. I have had three, two on the same flight on a heavy RJ100 EDI-LCY on a borderline tailwind and going into Gatters on easyJet when the aircraft ahead was slow in clearing. Cue TOGA and PA from the Cabin Crew with the tone set to "We're all about to hit the ground in a ****ing fireball". The eventual PA from the Flight Deck was much more modulated....
