Airline Delays Jump Again

Summary


More than a dozen planes sat on the tarmac for more than three hours in June, the government said Tuesday. It's the second month in a row that the number of three-hour delays reached double digits since a government rule went into effect over a year ago aiming to limit them.

The Department of Transportation said 14 planes were stuck on the tarmac for over three hours in June. There were 16 such delays in May. There were only 20 in the full year before that. Nearly 77 percent of major airlines' flights arrived on time in June, up from 76.4 percent the year earlier.
