CAA has published figures which show that during April to June the on-time performance of scheduled airlines improved slightly compared with the corresponding period in 2001. 75% compared with 74% in the second quarter of 2001. Six of the ten monitored airports recorded an improvement in on-time performance. The average delay remained unchanged at 14 minutes. The proportion of on-time charter flights (defined as early to 15 minutes late) rose steeply from the appalling second quarter level of 56% in 2001 to 69% in 2002, while the average delay also dropped significantly, from 33 minutes in 2001 to 23 minutes. Among the top 75 destinations, the scheduled routes to Rome, Cork, Faro, Toronto, Lisbon and Milan (Malpensa) all had higher than average delays.
