Sep 5, 2022Other Flyertalkers are much better at interpreting (and disputing) the traffic data, so I will leave it to the rest of you to make what you will of the data. I saw another article that suggested capacity cuts in all of the major airlines compared to last year, but still it appeared that UACO was lagging behind its competitors for this past July.

Continental Airlines reported July on-time performance of 64.1 percent, down 10.2 percentage points, and the airline flight-completion factor edged down 0.6 percentage points to 97.9 percent.
What a joke

IMO, this is the key quote:
Quote:
For July 2012, consolidated passenger revenue per ASM or PRASM, is estimated to have remained flat compared to last year.
Unit revenue remained flat year over year. While bargain-hunters may applaud this, it's a sign that UA contnues to experience difficulty in pushing revenues higher. Perhaps because those willing to pay are looking to other airlines? AA increased its unit revenue by an industry-leading 4.7% in July.For July 2012, consolidated passenger revenue per ASM or PRASM, is estimated to have remained flat compared to last year.

So this is saying that 35% of flights were delayed and 2% were cancelled?Originally Posted by demkr

That is a truly atrocious number! You had a greater than 1 in 3 chance of being delayed in July. Has an on-time percentage for any carrier ever been this low?Originally Posted by demkr

And by growing pains they must mean me booking my next trip on WN. Saved myself 40% or ~$300. Thanks for the discount Jeffy!!!
