Flight Delays Up In 2004

[SilentWarrior]

Arriving at least 15 minutes late last year were 21.9 percent of flights for the biggest airlines, which carry the vast majority of passengers. That represents a 22 percent increase in late arrivals over 2003, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics said in a report.

Hawaiian Airlines had the best arrival performance, landing on schedule 93.8 percent of the time. Delta subsidiary Comair had the worst, at 62.5 percent.

One flight, SkyWest Airlines Flight 6973 from Indianapolis to Chicago, was late 100 percent of the time.

Not too many suprises in this CNN article, and states that it will get worse due to more aircraft being put into an already overloaded system (RJ's).
