Data published on Friday (2 June) by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) shows that 6,400 flights were cancelled between January and March due to poor weather and the French air traffic controllers’ strikes.
This is down 12.3% on the previous three months while 71.3% of all UK flights arrived on time, despite remaining below 2019 levels.
Figures also showed that the average time delay has shrunk compared to the period between September and December, showing “that resilience is progressing to ensure passengers have positive experiences while travelling.”
