Don't know why but she eventually left about 4 hours late. Seems recent VS problems are still not over.

VS15 was very delayed yesterday as well and looks like it's expected to be 2hrs behind today too!

While taxing the pilot got a warning error and had to return to the gate and a new part was required. The Pax were informed before they left the a/c that it would likely be a 4 hour delay and that's was it was.

15 was delayed due to a late inbound aircraft.

Friends on the VS15 yesterday were informed it was delayed due to a fault at Vegas the night before, resulting in a delayed arrival of their aircraft.

I know there have been quite a few delays recently, one of the things I keep hearing is that the communication has been poor from the ground teams.

A lot of delays, and I lot of "technical faults"....strange.

I wonder whether it's just bad luck?
