The travel industry took a hit throughout the last few years, mainly due to the pandemic. While recovery is at the forefront of their plan, some airlines and airports have had more problems than others.

It won’t come as a surprise that London airports are the worst for flight cancellations, with Gatwick (39/1), Heathrow (44/1), and London City (50/1) all ranking high.

Throughout the summer last year, Gatwick announced that they will be cutting back on flights overall due to staff shortages.

Being delayed can cause just as much disruption to a holiday. The latest available data for flight delays across UK airports found that four London airports topped the list, with Gatwick being the worst for flight delays.
