Charter flights more punctual in 2002
The CAA recorded an improvement in the punctuality of charter flights in and out of the UK last Summer.
The proportion of on-time charter flights – those arriving or departing no more than 15 minutes behind schedule – was 67 percent between July and September last year. This was an improvement on Summer 2001, when 55 percent of charter flights were on time. The average delay also fell, from 41 minutes in 2001 to 25 minutes in 2002.
The charter routes with the highest average delays were those to and from Palma, Malaga, and Larnaca.
The statistics for schedule flights were relatively unchanged from Summer 2001. Between July and September 2002, 67 percent of schedule flights were on time, down slightly from 69 percent the previous Summer. The average delay increased slightly from 17 to 18 minutes in Summer 2002. The worst routes for schedule flight delays were Luton, Rome Fiumicino, Malaga and Jersey.
The CAA analyses the punctuality of flights into and out of ten UK airports – Heathrow, Gatwick, Birmingham, Luton, Stansted, Manchester, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Glasgow, and London City. The statistics include delays both within and outside the airlines’ control.
