@virtuous_sloth my co-founder for a startup had a great strategy: meeting for coffee 30 minutes before we had to be somewhere. It was a pleasant thing to try to get to, and built a little buffer into our time.

So, I have benefited undeservedly from the kindness of others when I've been late for a flight, although I rarely have jumped the queue. I'm going to say, Yes, But, where the "but" is to realise that it's a hassle for the staff and for other passengers.

@evan My father (was in the RCN then RCMP) was perpetually early. He always planned to be at least 15 minutes early for simple appointments in town and often was 30 minutes early.
He wanted to never be late.

Leaving for the train from Seattle to Vancouver yesterday, for example, I had ample time to take light rail from UW to the King Street Station, do passport check, and get seated. But it turned out that light rail was closed between UW and downtown, and I had to take a courtesy shuttle bus instead. All my enjoyable travel time (coffee at the station) got eaten up by the shuttle bus. I barely got through passport check with enough time to get through the gate and onto the train.

I am habitually late for transportation. I have gotten better at leaving with enough time to travel the distance to the airport, but I still have not developed the habit of having enough *extra* time for one (1) thing to go wrong. So, if there are any even minor setbacks, I'm in hilarious travel catastrophe mode.

Great answers. I found the conversation really interesting. This was a great framing:

*A movie made before 1978 contains a scene set at night*
Wow, this just looks so great! I don't know what it is but it's like at some point filmmakers forgot how to light night scenes so they actually look like night? THIS is what it should look like!
*In the movie made before 1978, lightning flashes*
Wow that looked like shit
