30.08.2010 - Iberia headed the list with a punctuality record of 45.98 per cent which means that over half of their flights arrived late according to a report by FlightStats. Iberia insisted that the delays were down to restrictions in air traffic during the period and the strikes in France as their punctuality is normally at 80 per cent. Spanair managed 47.76 per cent of their flights on time and Vueling 51.26 per cent. The best punctuality figure registered for a Spanish company was by Binter Canarias who came in at fifth overall in Europe with 86.35 per cent of their flights arriving on time.
