At the expense of perhaps being too ready to propose a simple answer, Iād be happy for the flying experience up to and including 10 September, 2001, preferably on a top-tier foreign carrier. Is that too much to ask?

In my experience, the objective response would be 'schedules and service are for reference only, we make no guarantees.' https://www.google.com/search?q=airline+schedules+and+service+are+for+reference+only%2C+we+make+no+guarantees Cue legal disclaimers in various Contracts of Carriage, 'Customer Commitments/Bill of Rights', etc. It has for decades been up to operators whether (and ATC, who could incentivize/mandate) they utilize proven COTS services to actively self-help, or to 'fire and forget', rely on others to sort it out, then invoke disclaimers. Unclear how the vaunted 'AI' would change that much, except for airlines (or 'Brand New ATC') to claim they are using it -- like many claimed 'innovations' before it. - RWM On 10/2/2025 3:24 PM, Tom Windmuller via Mifnet wrote: So, Iām curious.
