The Main Reason Why Planes Get Delayed

To be fair, about 80% of all flights are ON time — that is, within 15 minutes of the scheduled time. The other 20% are delayed, and it might seem a huge number, but consider this: a commercial flight is not like hopping into a car and driving away. It’s an extremely serious operation that requires lots of coordinated work from hundreds of people. Just recall how many steps do you, as a passenger, need to take to get on board!

Then, after arrival to another country, issues have to be solved to get clearance to depart from there once again. All of this requires time. Even a direct lightning strike can’t do much harm to a plane, and it happens more often than you think! However, nobody would risk hundreds of lives and an expensive aircraft for no good reason, and weather delays do occur. Pilots run final checks right before the flight, and if they see something’s off, they call the ground crew and fix things together. Preparing an airplane is a serious business, and any mistake here can cost much more than just money or time. Connecting flights are the most difficult to handle for obvious reasons: there are two different airplanes that need to adjust their schedules to each other. Delays caused by cargo are usually not too long, so you won’t be asked to return to the gate while waiting and loading is in process. Still, it can take up to an hour, so you’ll have to be patient. Often, the crew for your flight arrives from another one that has just landed in your airport. And it sometimes happens that their previous flight is not exactly on schedule for some reason. Many airplanes have precise weight restrictions, and if they’re violated, the flight is not allowed. If you’re at a busy airport, you just might get delayed because your service hasn’t delivered the food for your airplane on time. Airport employees go on strikes almost every year, and it’s among the top reasons for flight delays in Europe. It might seem weird, but flight traffic is getting heavier with every passing year, and airlines keep getting in trouble with that. The number of flights keeps growing, and it’s getting harder and harder to keep track of all of them, especially since the ATC equipment is not really up-to-date.
