100% On-Time?

Did they really achieve 100% On-Time? Impressive to see an African carrier keep that kind of reliability.

Ghana's new national carrier, Ghana International Airlines (GIA), is celebrating its 100 non-stop flight since it commenced operations late last year.
It also achieved an unprecedented 100% on-time record for arrivals at London Gatwick in January 2006. Every single GIA fight during the month of January landed at London Gatwick either on time or early, allowing the airline to claim the top position for punctuality from among the hundreds of worldwide airlines operating into the UK. GIA commenced its daily flights into London in October 2005 and has quickly established a reputation for fantastic value and on time performance. The airline has transported over 12,000 satisfied passengers since its inception, treating them to a product that combines traditional Ghanaian hospitality with modern safety and performance standards.
"The only acceptable on-time measure for us is 100%, and we are proud of our team members who have worked to achieve this on-time performance" said Brain Presbury, Chief Executive Officer of GIA.
