Slowing speeds to save on fuel costs
Any other companies telling pilots to slow it down to save fuel latley? Please let me know or send me a private message. I heard a memo was sent to other pilots too.
Slowing it down may save a little $$$ on fuel, but it always seems to end up costing us by making the customers angry from late arrivals, delays, etc.
Some of my pax also seem to watch the clock alot. They always ask when the flight is running a little longer than usual (usually due to ATC, weather, etc.).
