I am interested in how much focus there is. Obviously, there is some. A flight might be advertised as lasting an hour, but the aeroplane spends 20 minutes getting from the pushback to the runway and then 25 minutes in the air getting to Liverpool. The flight is an hour, but half of it is spent on the ground queuing in Dublin. Are there more efficient approaches? Maybe there are not.
