I agree. The most important question is if they were on orders or personal time.
As a business traveler, my tardiness could impact lots of people and push out massive project schedules. If I am delayed due to an irregular business flight (paid for and agreed upon with a client), my client would never give me grief. But if I was traveling for personal reasons on my own dime, I would certainly be held accountable. I usually give myself an extra day for personal travel just to be extra safe. Things do happen like XJCaptain mentioned.
