UK regional airline, Eastern Airways continues to be Newcastle and Birmingham Airports’ most punctual scheduled airline, according to numbers from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). The independent airline took the top spot at Birmingham and Newcastle after being named the number one on-time airline from January to June 2008, ahead of airlines including KLM, British Airways, Lufthansa, Brussels Airlines, easyJet and Ryanair.
The CAA’s latest punctuality statistics, analysed by on-line aviation analysts Flightontime.info, revealed that almost 94% and 89% of Eastern Airways flights departed from Birmingham and Newcastle within 15 minutes (defined by the CAA as on time). If any delays were experienced, they averaged 4 minutes at Birmingham and 6½ minutes at Newcastle during the period.
For two years, Eastern Airways was named the number one airline for punctuality at both Birmingham and Newcastle and is on target for a third full year at both airports, a spokesman said.
