Swoop OTP

11 days for the next available flight is not the greatest. I passed through a terminal recently which had a lot of Swoop flights and almost all were delayed including one to Vegas by 12 hours. Then the overnight to Montreal was cancelled due to lack of crew. Hmmm.

Pat Ward and Emily Rae say they were scheduled to come home to Winnipeg Monday but found out their flight had been cancelled after a truck hit their airplane, damaging a propeller.
Interesting...

Reliability and dependability combined the resulting confusion from their customers is no doubt in my mind most damaging to a new airline’s bottom line. There is plenty of evidence out there Swoop has ongoing issues.

It not really an airline's fault when a ground vehicle drives into fuselage and causes a large dent/gouge in skin. If you look at news videos you can see KF tinbashers fitting a sizable chunk of aluminum.
