Reply to comment by skinte1 in Jet carrying 335 forced to turn back after missing destination airport's closing time by 10 minutes by sprlte

They don’t coordinate?

I didn’t say that ATC breaks the law for people’s convenience. The article says that this airport does stay open for unforeseen circumstances. It sounds like the pilot took the slack for granted.

Either the folks in this story didn’t communicate well, or they agreed to risk it at the last minute.
