I have a mild curiosity in airport and flight logistics, it always seemed kind of cool to me.

Me too! I always think of after a huge storm causes a ton of cancellations. Like, how are they going to make up those flights and still put out the flights that they already have scheduled? There are only so many flights; do they build in this kind of capacity?

When I took statistics, all of our models centered around a cereal company and how they figured out how to fill the cereal bags so they meet whatever weight they said the bag carried (as it can never be below that number for legal reasons but you're rarely ever going to get that number exactly). That just made me aware of how big companies have to make these hugely complicated algorithms for things the public doesn't even think about. I love to see how they problem-solve these kind of problems.

Yeah! Why is boarding at 9:47 AM instead of 9:45, what made them pick this gate or this ...airplane company I just spaced out on the name lol to get to this place (Unless it's something like Delta to Atlanta because Atlanta is Delta's home of operations.

As someone who is going to school for IT w/ cybersecurity concentration, I would really like to at least look at the infrastructure of an airport's network, working there might be way too hectic, bu why the heck not.

Yeah, and also, there's a marketing component. Like, making something $4.99 feels less than spending $5 by a factor of more than one cent. Is there something like that at work here? Does making the arrival time non-standard make customers feel like the airlines aren't arbitrarily picking times? They're at the whims of winds and airports, etc. and therefore we shouldn't get too pissed at them for not being on time.

I know that household cleaners are market-tested so that their bottles are the right shape, the right color, have the right smell - the psychology that gets tested now and impacts tiny things you don't even think about is crazy. I watched a Mythbusters episode on the best way to board a plane and they found that basically almost anything is better than what they currently do but they're still doing it. *Flies logistics flag*
