TBM Staff - Mumbai In May, Vistara stood out as the sole domestic airline to enhance its average daily on-time performance (OTP) compared to April, based on Ministry of Civil Aviation data analysed by Business Standard.
All other airlines recorded a drop in average daily OTP during the same period. While Akasa Air saw a drop in OTP, it retained its top spot on the punctuality chart with a performance of 86.43 per cent. Vistara ranked second with an OTP of 82.15 per cent. Vistara had, in the March- April period, cancelled 10 per cent of its flights due to sick leaves taken by some pilots, amidst alleged dissatisfaction with tight duty schedules and new salary packages offered to them as part of the airline’s merger into Air India.
