Who has the right to ask for a plane delay?

Let me ask you a more appropriate question: Who has the right to stop the plane from being released?

From the personnel point of view: the maintenance personnel who repair the aircraft (release personnel), the pilots who fly the aircraft, and the tower personnel who command the aircraft at the airport can all prevent the aircraft from being released from the program. Of course, there is also a detached existence: the army.

From the objective factors: the state of the plane (whether it is seaworthy or not), the weather (including landing and alternate locations), the busy and safe state of the airport, the harassment of some passengers, and the visit of a country's leader will all affect the take-off time of the plane.

Talk about the impact of each link in detail.

The release personnel under maintenance will decide whether the aircraft is suitable for flight according to the technical state of the aircraft. Unless it is a new plane, it is inevitable that the plane will fly with injuries. Some faults are acceptable (for example, the lights in the engine room are broken), but some are unacceptable (for example, the landing gear cannot be retracted). If there are still unacceptable faults before take-off, then the plane can't be released no matter how tight the time is.

The pilot is the absolute authority on the plane. If TA thinks that there are any factors that affect TA's safe flight, the pilot can refuse to fly. This factor may be malfunction, weather, passengers or bad mood today. In short, the pilot is the boss of his own plane, that is, the one who hangs the most. Of course, they also have to weigh their responsibilities afterwards.

The airport tower is responsible for directing the orderly operation of all vehicles and personnel at the airport and the take-off and landing of aircraft. If there is a dog running at the airport, the plane can't take off naturally. If there are 10 planes applying for taking off at the same time, the take-off order can only be arranged according to the order of application. Procedurally speaking, the pilot can only apply to the tower for takeoff after the maintenance release personnel confirm that it can be released and all passengers are seated and ready. Therefore, as a passenger, the only thing you can do if you want the plane to take off early is not to make trouble, sit down and fasten your seat belt quickly and let the plane queue up early.
