Flybe named most punctual airline

New carrier figures released

Flybe has been named as Britain's most punctual airline.

Figures commisisoned by the BBC show the carrier, which serves a number of routes to and from the Island, has a consistent record of departing and arriving on time at all its operational airports.

According to air industry analysts OAG, just over one in ten Flybe flights are significantly delayed.

Conversely, easyJet - which also carries Manx passengers to Liverpool and London - has one of the worst track records for delays.

Ronaldsway Airport is given just 1 out of a possible 5 star rating by OAG - with just over 75% of its flights operating on time.
