Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel and to a question you guys asked me to do a video about. Airplane delays and more precisely what are airplane slots?
We’ve all experienced this before, you’re sitting at the gate and the nice lady informs you that your flight is being delayed. You immediately question why?
Well you’ll see five good reasons why pilots delay flights.
I hope you guys enjoy this video!
Thank you very much for your time!
Wishing you all the best!
Your "Captain" Joe

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Some absolutely entitled people......
Im a student pilot and understand when you'd just be better off driving.
LOL
Hilarious :))
Something inside me wants to punch that guy.
It always entertains me when I see fellow passengers throwing tantrums for delays as if they're the God rushing for the judgement day 🤣🤣🤣
This seems like a r/iambadass like I get the reason behind that reaction( some people might also deserve it) but still this is excessive
Wonder if God will do that lmao
@@thebfiaid957 even God would not do that lol
Pilot1: Soooo why did you become a pilot
Pilot2: To overcome my biggest fear
Pilot1: Heights?
Pilot2: Dying alone :3
So relatable

@kentstreetmeams
Plot Twist: Pilot 2 said it on the intercom.
I once had 5 hours of delay because the pilot got arrested by police🤯
The big Planet was it on JAL?
Always some fun in this boring life.:D
Better than the first officer stating a Squawk 7500 lul
What?
Rly
Haha you nailed that one on the head Joe, passengers will always find a way to complain about something. I once had an old man tell me that he never had experienced a missed approach at his home airport and that we where terrible pilots (the airport was in fog lol)
Aviator Inspirations lol
I've had that happen 2
I once missed a flight due to a delayed metro at a certain stop, plus I also assumed responsibility for having printed only the electronic ticket when I was supposed to print the boarding pass as well.
Got into waiting line for the following day at 7AM and then finally took the designated flight.
Now with the existance of Uber, online check-in, anticipated arrival to be at the front of the luggage claim line and being properly informed of the boarding gate approach procedures, getting ready to board is not hard anymore.
Thanks for sharing! Technology has really expedited the whole process, and its only going to get better and faster with facial recognition technology and blockchain. Very exciting to see how aviation evolves!
Simple typing error, we are all humans :) but good job on the catch!
So we’re just gonna ignore this magical disappearing man? 1:37

I was searching this comment 😂

The reason passengers get upset is because the airline waits too long to explain in detail exactly what's going on... Like you did in this video... Good job!... If efforts were taken to explain things like slots, weather, mechanical problems, etc, along with descriptions of what is being done in real time and what to expect and why, then passengers would have a better understanding and feel less neglected. The 'need to know' is a very strong aspect of being human and needs to be accommodated by the airline. By any business that deals with the public and their time.
Exactly. I was delayed till 3 am once but luckily the airport is 20 mins away from home. I had to call the crappy customer service line for them to tell me they didn't have enough planes to fly the routes they scheduled.
Not this passenger! I want the airlines and airports to behave like a duck in water: smooth and collected on the surface but working hard as hell underneath. 😎
you're thinking swans, ducks are much better swimmers.
Mind you sometimes it's best not to know why you're delayed.
(loose snakes on the plane)
yes!!!! if the plane hasn't even taken off from the previous airport at the time we should be BOARDING they obvs knew about it hours earlier. i understand things happen but i would like to know. for instance my last flight was 3 hours delayed and if the airline could let us know those things i could have dropped my child off at school myself and had more time with them before having to leave. and this happens allllll the time from the airport we leave from.
Trust me. Delays are just as frustrating to aviation employees as for passengers.
YES!!
YES!!!!
(as someone who lost few years of her lifespan organising events:) YES and same for events, conferences, concerts etc.
I love the way you introduce the video with that airport rage!
Everyday with ryanair 😂
@FluteDellie Actual truth 😂😂😂
Naah EasyJet is good (my opinion)
There should be training for aspiring staff do deal with this situations.
We are going on that flight.
*_I WARN YOU_*
I'd rather have delays than a compromise in safety.
I've seen enough Air Crash Investigation to know that a few supposedly "minor" malfunctions can have serious consequences.
e.g. A 20 cents light bulb on L1011
This needs more likes.
@@jackiegundam yes the eastern 401

Passenger: I hate flight delays!

Great video Joe! The only thing that really makes me upset is the complete lack of communication with passengers. If there is a delay tell us, don't have us wait at the gate for over an hour without any explanation.
"traffic controllers... no reason to go on strike"... "pilots... good reason to go on strike" No bias there! None that i can see!
Lately we had some traffic controller strikes or at least disruptive service in Belgium. Simple reason was that because of governmental budget cuts over the last years there aren't simply enough controllers. The controllers get paid a lot, but they didn't get any day of from their legal holidays. Just imagine you can't go on holiday with your family for several years because they don't invest in new recruits. I'd also not show up at work if my employer neglects my holiday rights. And the last thing you want is to have frustrated ATC controlling the safety of thousands of people up in the sky. That's just disaster waiting to happen.

As a former TV host (and a student pilot on B737-800 simulator) I can state this man is by far the most pleasant presenter of what he does and obviously loves a lot. Speaks slowly, clearly, illustrating everything he talks about, good looks as well. Way to go Joe, thanks a bunch for everything and have safe skies as often as possible!
You know.. this is why we should never get angry at the pilot or the flight crew because.. hey.. anything can happen, and I believe that they will try the best they can to provide the best service out there. So.. if there's a delay just enjoy it, better safe than sorry.
In principle, yes. But something isn't right when your flight is delayed 24 hours.
Gosh... the air is not an human environnement as well as the sea. So if for any reason you can’t go, that’s life. You can’t stop at a cloud while the plane is broken !
Thank you so much for another fantastic video :) . The parking spot example is a great example that applied to my recent flight from Charlotte to Orlando. I remembered on my boarding pass it said the flight was supposed to board at gate B4. I got to B4 15 minutes early and noone was around. Then I learned the gate changed to B 11, and then finally I learned the plane landed and parked at gate D11 . Of course my fellow passengers on the flight were ticked because we had to run through the atrium, and then run through concourse D to get to our gate, but I knew that day there was a good reason. I am always amazed at how the ATC folks manage so many planes at once. Same goes for the ramp agents for the embraer planes I flew on. I learned that my carry on luggage would not fit in the overhead bin, but I knew it was in good hands so I just let them take care of it :). I don’t get a chance to fly that often, but when I do, I make sure they know they’re appreciated :) .
It is so cool and almost unbelievable you take so much time and effort to explain "things" in so much detail, thanks.
I love the way you present all your videos, experiences and information. That’s why I never miss a single video from you!!

Great video!! I appreciate airline workers of any kind, tough jobs for sure.
Pilots go on strike: "They have good reasons"
ATC go on strike: "You make way too much money to go on strike".
Love by an italian ATCo.
Yeah I was kinda thrown off by that as well... no way they make more money than pilots. Not cool at all. If Joe says ATC's make enough money and then contradicts it with pilot's strikes, he'd better explain why. I don't really know but something tells me that the ATCs went on strike not because of money but because of understaffing and long shifts... just a hunch. While pilots, again AFAIK, are only getting their hours of flight reduced every month (80) while retaining the same salary which is just high, period. So.. sorry pilots, I have no sympathy for you. But maybe Joe can remedy that.
@@vl3005 everybody have their own reasons to go on strike. And these reasons are always important. Saying that we earn way too much to do it is insulting. I would never say something like this to anyone.
@@giacomomariucci8140 But you're proving my point. That's exactly what Joe did which is weird. Are you a pilot? Are you denying you're making more than enough money? I mean, if it's something other than salaries I would like to know, that's why I figured Joe should explain that part. Or maybe you can...

The turbulance over the hudson bay on an international flight was kind of fun. It had air-time in it! It was more of a minor vomit-comet ride than just bumps and side-jerks. Pilot told all the attendents immediately stop service and get belted into their seats at the time too. 777-300 San Francisco to Tel Aviv.
Love your channel. I was so afraid of flying its watching you that has helped me get over my fear!!

This really helps me understand flight delays better. Thanks!
My auntie was flying to Vancouver today but had to stop at Edmonton. She was supposed to be in Vancouver at 12 pm but her plane had a technical malfunction which delays her to get to Vancouver at 12 am.
Many years ago I was at BWI late one stormy, snowy night staring anxiously out a gate seating area window. I looked down and noticed a uniformed man in a flight uniform and hat with a flashlight carefully inspecting each tire and brake line, climbing up into each wheel well, scrutinizing every structure he could find for nearly 15 minutes in the freezing cold wind and sleet. No one else saw him, but I did. When he finally finished, he was covered in snow and was probably chilled to the bone. As far as I am concerned, he is a hero. I knew he was serious about safety, and I felt at peace during the ensuing turbulent, stormy flight to TPA. Pilots, like doctors, are trained, and know their business. Part of our ticket price is paying for their knowledge, and ability to keep us safe. Whenever I get annoyed at flight delays, I always think about that pilot in the snowstorm, and accept what has to be. I am also thankful for pilots like that US Air officer that snowy night.
Charles Butler Reminds me of a time in Billings when a tire had to be changed in a horrific wind chill. A college kid whined about the delay and a big man in cold weather gear said, "You want to come out and help us?" That shut him up. :)
I had fly from bwi to maine via phl at 4 left at 1 am from dca
I once had a 7 hour delay when I was flying on Delta Airlines from Portland, OR to New York City (JFK) because there was a part that needed to be ordered from Alaska
BenjiBean NO ways😭😭😭!!!
I had a 7hr delay too. I can’t remember what it was for, though. A lot of happy faces🙃
I always try to be extra kind to airport and airline staffs anyway because they have largely thankless jobs, but I’ve never thought about some of these reasons for delays. Thanks for the information, Joe! I now have more reason to have compassion for these workers when the schedule changes suddenly, and now maybe I can also help other passengers do the same by explaining the situations a bit better.
Thanks for the wonderful video.It explains a lot for my future flight endevours!!!

Had one, flying out of Ottawa on United. Plane delayed 2 hours due to weather out of Dulles. You can change to Air Canada and connect at Toronto, home a bit sooner. I go to Toronto. Plane delayed indefinitely due to weather (guess where). End up getting home four hours later than if i went the original way. As long as crew runs through the mumbo jumbo with me, i’ll be happy as a clam (before it’s put into chowder).

I work in an airport lounge for a big Aussie airline and last year we had a couple of days of hell when weather issues meant Sydney airport run on a single Runway for most of the afternoon and then was shut completely for a good hour at least. Believe me, that was not fun at all for everyone. Most of the time delays just happen and it's no one's fault so don't get cranky at staff cause they can't often do much at all and there are procedures in place to ensure safety is the first word that comes up in a checklist before anything can happen. Well done for the video, Joe.

Wow !! Thanks for explaining that to us, now I understand better, I love flying and now when there’s any delays I will have a better understanding 😘😘😘😘😘😘
Also, i want to highlight that some airlines have heaps more money at their disposal (Emirates, for instance) that they can afford leaving 2 A380 at Melbourne airport parked for a few hours without worrying too much. Some other airlines, most of them actually, have tight schedules and one issue in the morning can mean several delays throughout the day.
10:12 Amazing, amazing the power of INTERNET..
When all the pilots faint, does the flight attendant ask if anyone has experience flying?
Would you?
I would tell them I made successful landings in flight simulator😂😂
@@hashimel-galad443 lmao
Gun Nut FlightSimmers actually have a good general feeling of crosschecking and knowing the basics of flying. Al the other aircrft related stuff is being told by ATC. If you already know the most basic stuff it's like a drastically increased chance of landing the bird :)
Max Spinks yes it will be the last way to survive. Maybe a PPL or student pilot in the plane
Excellent job captain Joe great video and explanation. Please keep sharing. Best of luck and thanks once again.

One of my favourite delays was a 90 minute weather delay from Sydney Kingsford Smith (YSSY) to Dubbo City Regional (YSDU) - got a A$20 snacks credit due to the delay. I loved the way Qantas/QantasLink (actually was QantasLink because Qantas don't fly anything bigger than a Q400 to YSDU) put it out there for us to allow us to get things and be at our departure gate lounge before the flight was scheduled (was scheduled to fly to YSDU at 1900hrs but got held up and departed at 2030hrs)

I think you forgot to mention 'operational reasons' Captain :). I am a former employee of airport ground operation and I can clearly say most of the delays occur because of Airline ITSELF. Poor crew planning particularly when flight crew unnecessarily changing aircrafts that delays to start boarding... poor schedule planning set by airlines that put enormous pressure to the ground handling companies and airports, this also makes impossible to be airborne on time even after push back... waiting transfer passengers and luggages from other aircrafts so on and on... Last but not least, I would put 'non-operational request from flight crew' forefront as a delay reason especially 'urgent smoking necessity' at outside of aircraft between flight legs. These are cannot be told to passengers as a delay reason obivously if you want to find airport in one piece :p. Just announce ' dear passengers, our flight is delayed because of the operational reasons for 30 minutes' and that's it

I love your channel man!!
Once on a flight the destination did a "ground stop" but we were already in the air. We circled for about 20 minutes while they cleared the runway, and we did a textbook low visibility / low braking landing. Everybody cheered, and I congratulated the pilots as I left the plane.

Sad News For Aviation World. RIP #Boeing737Max8
Hi joe. First of all I wanted to thank you for being such a big inspiration and an effective motivator to all the aspiring pilots like me out there. Your videos have given me a lot of confidence to prepare hard and achieve my goal.
However I wanted to suggest a topic for your upcoming video. Can you make a video on how pilots cope up mentally with a near death experience or a dangerous situation and regain their confidence to fly a plane after such an incidence? What should someone do to not lose confidence and go into a panic mode after suffering from such a situation?
You get numb to the idea. It’s like when you are driving and the car in front of you brakes hard and you do the same and stop. You just had a near death experience too. The next day you get in your car again right? You don’t think about it because you have become numb to the danger. it’s the same process except this car costs millions of dollars. That’s all.
Great vid!!
There is absolutely no justification for pax rage. Cheers, Russ
That's too easy. No justification for "violent rage" i'm with you. But "non violent rage" is for a passenger in need VERY understandable.
I used to be a rampy at two airports in Florida. Just to put a smile back on the faces of my front line coworkers I used to make sure that unreasonable passengers had just a little more frustration during their trip.
I would routinely open a suitcase and place it upside down on the baggage claim belt so when it was picked up the contents would spill out. (Yes, that meant I had to pop a zipper now and then or break a lock. But hey, it happened during the flight when there was some turbulence....)
Other times when I worked small planes and people would see me putting their bags on the plane, I would wait until they were all boarded and the door closed and then I would take their bag out of the plane and put it on the next flight. Yes, I would tell the pilot that something fell off my belt like my walkie talkie.
But the one thing that I really wish I would have done with the single worst passenger I had ever come across was that I wanted to remove all identification from their bag and put an LAX tag on it and toss it into the conveyor belt maze below the airport. It would have gone to LAX, sat somewhere for a little while and with no identification it would have been disposed of. And at that time (early 90's) I heard that they were simply incinerating unmarked bags that were not claimed within a short period of time.
It was kind of a backwards industry at that time from what I saw. The way to make my day better was to make a passengers day worse. But only if that person deserved it.
@@TheLibermania I agree. The only time I lost my temper (only a loud voice was used) is when my flight was canceled and when I ask how will I get home the gate agent said that's not my problem.
The air travel experience is quite stressful from the time of booking right through to leaving the arrival airport. It’s long, very complex and often unpredictable for all concerned. Personal attacks on front line staff is just wrong - no exceptions. I do however wish that the front line staff had a better info feed out of the system and were supported more by their management.
The customer ranting so violently is most likely the same guy who cuts you up in road rage on the motorway or pushes ahead in queues. Pure selfishness.

Hi Captain, my elder brother is flight attendant for a south american company (319, 320 & 767). Once, he was on a stand by day and then suddenly he received a phone call. Fortunately, he always has everything ready to go airborne. But, once he underestimated traffic and he got a speed limit fine. It's been an amazing video, thanks! some of your explanations I've heard before from my brother and all of them match. Greetings from Taiwan
amazing video. Thanks for explaining. One thing to add... The ground crew at the airport and on the plane, should ALSO EXPLAIN these things for those who didn't see this exact video.
I'm more than OK to waiting for any of the reasons you just explained, but before I saw this video, I didn't know all these things and when in a hurry, when you're hungry, when you stood 3 hours in line at some airport, you think the worst... so.. some more clear explanations from the crew would go a LONG way
I remember being 4 years old and riding a plane,then it was delayed by an hour. But I didn't care. 😂
Hey, French ATC also have reasons to be on strike, especially when everybody want to limit the number of employees... Which would surely cause less controllers for small airports for leisure aviation, and I think more accidents :(
Thanks for claryfing Joe I once explained this to someone and realised I had some contradicting experience.
Now to the intro scene. The man looks like he missed the connecting flight. I was surprised KLM offers so many flights with 30 min layover while they only reschedule your second flight if the first one was more than 90min delayed. To be fair I flew with them, I had a 3h layover in Amsterdam and both flights arrived 15 min early.
Happy Christmas Joe God bless you
00:00 I can tell that he is dutch
So german pilots have good reasons to go on strikes but french ATC apparently not? Hmmm ok...
I think its clear he wanted to point out a difference in salary and / or working conditions. He should know...
ATC makes a LOT more than some pilots.
Then again, I was a rampy and I was making more than some of the pilots I worked with. Yikes! I counted my 2 hour commute on my time card.
When the boss told me not to do it, I said that I would simply back out that much time from my actual work time to allow for 40 hours including travel. The two ladies working the counter had to get the first flight out....customs declarations, baggage, fuel and marshalling. They called the boss and let him have it. He called me afterward and said that if he ever got another call like that from the two ladies, I was fired. I told him that the way to make sure it didn't happen was to let me go back to what I was doing. He relented. Automatic 20 hours of overtime ever week.
That is why I made more than some of the pilots.
The one who I could never beat in pay was the one who showed the owner of the airline (little island hopper airline) his most recent tattoo, he got a $1,500 per month raise. The pilot had the company's logo tattooed on his arm.
@Jimmy De'Souza People who go on strike are selfish and disgusting. Imagine if someone urgently needs to be somewhere to visit a family member that's about to die? Lazy selfish strikers don't care.

Yelling at security because you are running late. Never a good idea. I'm sorry sir, but you and your luggage are going to have to wait in this room right over here...
delays based on late passengers doing shopping is a reason i can't excuse... but delays for technical reasons... i don't care. better late than never! and if a company had more than 3 technical reasons delays in 1 month I switch airlines .
it happens everyday for any airlines
As Joe mentioned, even a wrong bulb can ground a plane. And there's a reason.
What are you going to do after you run out of airlines? Maybe you can get a private corporate jet which does not break down. Oh wait but they do. All mechanical thins break down. Even your body parts don’t function perfectly forever.
Good on you, Captain Joe. Another brilliantly informative video.
Hey Joe! I just realized that this was uploaded on my 15th birthday. Thanks for your gift!
So according to you, ATC can't go on strike because they earn a lot of money?
Guillem Perramon Mascaró It’s called a joke.
If I’m an Airline Company’s Manager;
Flight Attendant: Sir there is passenger complaining about the delay
Me: okay, I’ll deal with him
Also me:
SIR IF YOU DON’T WANT TO EXPERIENCE FLIGHT DELAY, WHY DON’T YOU JUST FLY THE PLANE ALL BY YOURSELF?!
Cp. Joe thanks for doing this, It's fun to see the insider view of how these things work
As a business traveler flying out of and into Newark airport in NJ, I've gotten used to asking the gate attendant or the flight attendant "what is our wheels up time?". The reason is the departure time on a boarding pass is only the time the aircraft will back away from the gate. If everything is running on time in Newark (highly UNLIKELY), then the wheels up time will be shortly after the departure time. However, if there are delays (highly LIKELY), the wheels up time could be hours after the departure time and the airlines will still board and depart (sometimes because the gate is needed for other arriving aircraft). This goes hand-in-hand with the "slots" Captain Joe is speaking about.
