Flybe has again been recognised as the most punctual UK-based airline in the latest report on ‘Best and Worst Airlines’ issued by leading consumer watchdog Which?.
The study was based on an analysis of monthly punctuality statistics gathered by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) on the percentage of flights that arrived in to the UK within 15 minutes of due time (Short Haul Airlines).
Flybe operates more domestic flights than any other airline with over 500 flights a day from 33 UK and 48 European airports and is the largest scheduled airline measured by air traffic movements at nine UK airports. Luke Farajallah, Flybe’s Chief Operating Officer, said: “Flybe remains heavily focused on maintaining its above average track record for punctuality and there is a company-wide commitment to improve even further this very important element of our passengers’ experience.
“So we are naturally delighted to have been again recognised as the most punctual UK-based airline. Arriving on time is an important consideration for passengers and is amongst the key performance areas scrutinised and monitored closely by all airlines.”
Flybe was rated the best UK airline for punctuality and sixth in the world in the global airlines punctuality league table by OAG in Jan 2017 and has in previous years consistently topped its competitors in a number of similar Which? reports.
