Flighty Numbers: Chennai Takes the Pinnacle, but India's Aviation Industry Remains Grounded The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has released its domestic air travel data for May.
Chennai takes the top spot in terms of punctuality, with 92. 2% of flights operating on time. However, this achievement is not without context: it reflects systemic issues plaguing India's aviation industry.
Chennai's success is closely followed by Kolkata at 84. 7%. In contrast, Delhi and Mumbai languish at the bottom of the list, with punctuality rates of 72. 6% and 70. 5%, respectively.
