Why is it that Charter Airlines who also operate scheduled flights manage so much better punctuality on the scheduled flights?
Take Monarch for example.
LGW Charter - 28 mins average delay / 12.4% over an hour late
LGW Scheduled - 10 mins average delay / 3.7% over an hour late
LTN Charter - 24 mins average delay / 10.9% over an hour late
LTN Scheduled - 12 mins average delay / 4.2% over an hour late
Does the airline put more emphasis on getting the scheduled flights off on time, often at the expense of the charter programme? Just curious as it seems a huge difference.
