What the record says about LTN
Departures from Luton 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. Wizz Air UK left on time 35.7 points more often than El Al from the same airport — which is the clearest evidence available that a delayed departure is not purely the airport's fault.
With 40 routes in the record, LTN is a hub, and hubs carry a particular risk: a delay early in the day propagates through every aircraft that was due to fly on afterwards. Morning departures from a hub are reliably better than evening ones.
