Study finds flight times extended by airline companies to avoid compensation

The plane journeys are taking longer than a decade ago, according to a report that claims the change is down to airlines “padding” their schedules to make the impression passengers were reaching their destinations on time.

According to the investigation done by Which? Travel, the carriers are adding extra time to flight schedules, in some cases up to 30 minutes, to ensure they maintain punctuality and are therefore less likely to be liable for compensation payouts. The majority of flight routes are advertised as taking longer than 10 years ago, despite improvements in aircraft technology.

The researchers examined average flight times for 125 routes operated by large airlines in 2009 and compared them with last year. They found that 76 routes, 61%, were now slated to take longer; with 87% of British Airways flights analysed found to be slower. That proportion was 82% for Ryanair, 75% for Virgin Atlantic and 62% for easyJet.

British Airlines flights from Heathrow to Bangkok, New York and Singapore were extended by 20 minutes, and a Virgin Atlantic flight from Heathrow to Newark Liberty airport, New Jersey, now takes an average of 35 minutes longer.

Which? Travel also said that the passengers are likely to feel that schedule padding is another case of airlines pulling the wool over their eyes.

The airlines are quick to claim that adding 10, 20 and even 30 minutes to flights will improve on-time performance. The accompanying slump in punctuality over recent years suggests it hasn’t helped much. Instead, longer scheduled flight times are likely to mean passengers spend more time sitting around at the gate or on the plane itself, just so the airline can pat itself on the back for being ‘on time’ at the destination. Conveniently, it could also reduce the number of instances when an airline has to pay the compensation for a flight delay.

Keith Mason, professor of air transport management at Cranfield University, told Which? that airlines regularly adjusted scheduled flight times to give themselves some “wiggle room”. The problem for airlines is that if there’s any delay, then [there is] the knock-on effect through the rest of the flying programme that day.  Despite the changes in scheduling, some of Europe’s largest carriers have seen punctuality fall in recent years.
