Why are return flights almost always delayed yet outbound flights never are? 🤔🤔

Outbound flights start in the morning after the airline has had the night to sort problems out. Return flights are usually in the evening when any problem during the day has compounded.

What OW said

So you can get sweet delta $$$!

Because they are secretly conspiring to keep you away from home as long as possible

Because weather systems are driven by differences in solar heating and evaporative patterns, and thus mostly occur in the afternoon or evening when most return flights are.

My American citizen 8 month old is on tourist visa in India; current stay runs out on June 7. Flying outside the country is a risk we don’t want to take w/COVID. Don’t want to overstay the visa either. So we applied online on eFRRO to convert his visa to X-1 so we can apply for his OCI. They didn’t ask for payment and message popped up saying watch your text/email for next steps. Anything else I can do?

Luggage delay claim question

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days. But the claim agency chase used has been asking for airlines response, which has not came (2month+ now). I am concerned insurance will use this as an excuse to never compensate. Is there a good way to handle this situation?
TIA

I have 32k miles with THY that are about to expire. Normally I'd go ahead and book a flight, but I can't project which countries might be locked down again 5-6 months from now (haven't accrued enough PTO to travel in near future). The only other way to keep the miles is to pay $10 per 1000 miles, as far as I know. Are there other strategies?
