NONE OF THE Indian aviation brands or companies made it to the top 10 rankings for on-time performance (OTP) globally, as instances of flight delays soared in 2024, highlighting the gap in operational inefficiencies.
The second and third positions during the 2023 global ranking conducted by Cirium, an aviation data and analytics firm, were held by Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, Hyderabad and Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru, respectively.
However, neither Hyderabad nor Bengaluru airports made it to the top 10 rankings in 2024. In fact, no Indian airport, including major hubs like Delhi and Mumbai, featured in the top 10 even within the Asia-Pacific category.
King Khalid International Airport, Saudi Arabia and Jorge Chavez International Airport, Peru, clocked the best OTPs among airports during 2024 for the number 1 and number 2 positions, respectively.
