If that doctor was all that important, he should have scheduled a flight

Given the reliability of air travel at any time, I'd agree. Same with
people that have to meet a cruise ship that is not going to wait for
you. As should the airline schedule their crew better, not to have to
pull people out of their seats.

You seem to think it's just a simple matter of scheduling. Typically
airlines wind up with this need for a crew because of some unforeseen
circumstance, like eqpt problems, weather, illness, that resultsin a flight
crew not arriving where they are needed. Apparently that is what
happened on the KY end. Now you need to get a crew to KY, or a whole
plane load of people will not fly.
