Airline Flight Cancellations??

How does this happen.  The airlines know how many flyable aircraft they have.  They know how many crews they have.  And lesser things like airport gates.   It should be simple to compute how many flights they can fly before running out of something, aircraft, crews, gates, what ever.  Only schedule the flights you have resources to fly.  Don’t put/leave flights on the timetable if you don’t have the resources to support them. 

  Should be simple to figure and get it right.  I wonder why the airlines don’t bother; they just run out of something, probably aircrews, and cancel flights, hanging the passengers out to dry.

  We need a passenger support agency that lets us know how bad each airline is so we can make reservations on the carriers more likely to fly.

  Delays are another matter.  There is always bad weather or air traffic control to blame the delay on.  But cancellations are pure contempt for passengers.
