What the record says about OOL
Departures from Gold Coast run late more often than average — enough that a tight connection at the far end deserves a second look.
The airlines flying from here are not equally affected. Jetstar left on time 10.8 points more often than QantasLink from the same airport — which is the clearest evidence available that a delayed departure is not purely the airport's fault.
