報告指出 年超3成國內航班延誤

Chinese airlines' on-time performance remained poor last year, a recent government report said, despite repeated pledges by civil aviation authorities to solve the problem.

一份近日釋出的政府報告指出，儘管我國民航部門一再承諾解決航班晚點問題，去年國內航班的正點率依然不高。

Only about 68 percent of the 3.37 million flights by domestic carriers in 2015 were on time, meaning nearly one-third of Chinese flights were late last year, according to the 2015 Annual Report on Civil Aviation Industry Development released by the Civil Aviation Administration.

民航局釋出的《2015年民航行業發展統計公報》顯示，去年，全國客運航空公司共執行航班337.3萬班次，航班正點率僅為68%左右，這意味著有近1/3的國內航班遭遇延誤。

The late flights had an average delay of 21 minutes - 2 minutes more than in 2014, the report said.

該公報稱，2015年，全國客運航班平均延誤時間為21分鐘，同比增加2分鐘。

The biggest drag on flights was air traffic control measures, which accounted for 30.7 percent of flight delays last year, followed by bad weather, which caused 29.5 percent of postponements, it said.

此外，該公報還指出，去年，造成航班延誤的最主要原因是空中交通管制措施，佔比30.68%；其次是惡劣天氣，佔比29.53%。

Airlines were responsible for 19.1 percent of the delays, and the remaining 20.7 percent were for "other reasons". The administration didn't elaborate on those.

航空公司對19.1%的延遲負有責任，而剩餘20.7%的延遲要歸因於“其他原因”。政府方面並沒有針對這些進行詳細說明。

The on-time rate for Chinese airlines in 2014 was also about 68 percent, but carriers themselves were the biggest contributor to delays that year, followed by air traffic control measures and bad weather.

中國航空公司2014年的航班正點率也在68%左右，但是當年運營商自身是航班延誤的最主要原因，其次是空中交通管制措施及惡劣天氣。
