Olbie, you are not not long in the aviation business I would say.
Think about it, if an aircraft is scheduled to be early on every sector it means more on ground time and so no profit. Time on the ground doing nothing is too expensive for the company, An aircraft must work to pay for itself and if you speak to any charter operator they will tell you 18 hours a day is possible. As for pax not caring if they arrive on time, well thats just plain stupid! On time arrival is the biggest concern for any pax especially business travellers who have deadlines. On time departures don't matter if you arrive on time for these people. Secret to success is a tight schedule you can keep to and GF has rarely been able to achieve that.
How can being early be bad for anybody?

If you want lessons on how NOT to be ontime, talk to Geert at EY. He's doing a great job
. That is when he's not in the cockpit telling the pilots to put their ties on before departure. Good job Geert, just take your seat in the back so you can start on your 6 or 8 doubles to have a good buzz on by the time you get to destination!!

As a business traveller the only thing that concerns me is arriving at or before the time stated. WE have to plan our movements and meetings around when we expect to arrive. Getting into a destination after the scheduled time can seriously f@#K up my plans. I do not particulalry care about whether we depart on time or not as long as we get there on time.
Having said that I am very p!ssed off at the moment. I am sitting in the lounge in Kuwait having just been told that my 11.35 flight to Bahrain GF212 has been cancelled and I will have to wait till 14.40 to get on GF214.
Apparently there was no operating crew, so will some of you get of your backside and instead of posting on Pprune get flying those aircraft
