United Breaks Newark On-Time Record

United Airlines just shattered its own records at Newark Liberty, posting the best on-time performance ever for April and May — and outpacing JFK and LaGuardia. The turnaround? A hard-won fix: capping flights at what the airport can safely handle. After a tech meltdown in April — when radar vanished and runways were closed — the FAA slashed Newark’s hourly flight limit. Now, with staffing at an all-time high and a new 72-flight-per-hour cap (pushing for 75, aiming for 77), United’s CEO says physics, not politics, is the real limit. They’re not chasing more — just maximizing what Newark’s runway setup can reliably manage. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
