Is that really true? What percentage of flights do you think actually reach this level of outage? I'm not saying it can't reach that level and I don't know the tolerance of your business, but it seems like we're still talking in very small percentages here.
So of the 8 return flights I've taken in the last 3 years, two have had some form of luggage delay. One for 3 days, going from Dublin to Baltimore via British airways, and one for 1 day, arriving back in Ireland via American.
So in my experience, that's a 12.5% rate for major delays, and a 25% rate for any delays.
