Airports With the Most Delayed & Cancelled Flights

1 Comment

airports with most flight cancellationsCancelled and delayed flights, lost or delayed baggage, long lines at security check-in – it’s all been an unhappy part of post-Pandemic travel.  Simply, some airports and airlines are better – or worse – than others.

AirHelp, an air passenger rights group, has compiled date for the worst airports for cancelled flights and on-time performance in both the U.S. and Europe, which you might want to consider avoiding as you plan your next trip.

These stats are from the peak summer travel season (May 27, 2022-July 31, 2022), as reported in the travel trade publication Insider Travel Report, which ecoXplorer follows.

Note that these figures are for cancellations, not delayed flights.  That’s a whole other story.
