Took 10 mins for them to come out and hook up the tug for a tow in gate last night. Put us a few mins over A14.

Damn it ATC.

After talking about our commutes for an hour and exchanging Toy pictures the gate agent comes down with the numbers. Told him we couldn’t go. Don’t have any paperwork. Oh and a couple other things we need.
There’s your on time performance.
Mint has gone downhill since we started it. The food quality and standard is declining, all part of cost cutting. They won't even cater 16 meals anymore for redeyes flights, depending what time the flight leaves. If someone wants a meal and they are out, they give them a voucher. Who wants grilled cheese and tomato soup anyway when you paid $800 for your seat.

I've had a couple flights now where meals have been missing or they catered half breakfast and dinner for an evening flight. Damn ATC..... or business partners... or runway construction.....

I commute sometimes in Mint. I can confirm this. The food and service has indeed gone down a bit.

That happens when management takes their workers for granted and continues to squeeze pennies from them.

Sadly, it will only get worse.

It's been going downhill for a while. A national business newspaper was lamenting how poor the food was in an article published last March. Needless to say that article didn't make it into the JB Pravda Daily. Their cheapness will be their downfall.

Pravda... hahahahaa...

And I've been calling it Tokyo Rose for the longest time... Pravda seems more accurate.

I also noticed that Pravda didn't publish their stellar On-Time-Performance for 2017.

Based on what I’ve seen the past few days, if we don’t get a contract by summer, this company is going to be in deep $hite. Fly safe all.
