The average charter flight at Glasgow operated nearly 35 minutes behind schedule during the summer 2008 season, with overall on-time performance of 60% recorded, the worst seasonal punctuality seen at the airport since we began analysing records in 2003.

Despite recording the best on-time performance at Glasgow over the season, XL Airways finished in third position at the airport with an average delay in excess of 41 minutes, adversely affected by the large proportion of extensive delays with 7% of flights operating over 3 hours late.
The relatively small number of flights by Monarch Airlines had the worst timekeeping at Glasgow during the period, with the average flight delayed by nearly an hour.
