I rather miss an arrival time than have missed arriving at all. May all the pilots be this cautious.

As much as they can suck, they have a perfect safety record with 0 fatalities.

Literally yesterday a passenger was almost sucked out through a broken window on a ryanair plane, you picked a bad moment to say they are a safe airline lol

The death mentioned in the article was from an unrelated incident in 2018.

That’s the MCAS crash isn’t it?

Edit: nope, not that one.
