Travel facts …

FIGURES published by Britain’s Civil Aviation Authority reveal that on-time performance for all scheduled flights operating from the UK's ten main airports in 2014 dipped to 79%, one percentage point down from 2013 figures. The overall on- time percentage of charter flights dipped four percentage points to a low of 73% with an average delay of 18 minutes, up from 17 minutes in 2013.

Research by refund.me, a global passenger rights service provider, confirms that passengers are increasingly experiencing disrupted travel from flight delays, cancellations and re-routings, with peak holiday season travellers experiencing the worst in airline punctuality.

‘With our skies becoming increasingly crowded, many UK passengers travelling in the summer peak travel season of mid-June through to August are likely to experience sub-standard on time performance," said Eve Buchner, refund.me founder and CEO.
