Where these figures come from

Israel’s own regulator does not publish punctuality data

These figures come from the UK Civil Aviation Authority, which reports every flight at its own end of the route — whichever airline operates it. So this is not a picture of all air travel in Israel — domestic flights within Israel, and its routes to countries that publish nothing, are absent.

What the record shows

On Israel routes the airlines separate clearly: El Al arrived on time 13.3 points more often than Wizz Air UK. Both fly the same corridors into the same airports, so the difference is in how each is run rather than where each flies.

Because these flights are counted at the other end of the route, the picture is partial by construction. Domestic flying inside Israel does not appear, and neither do its routes to countries that publish nothing. What is here is accurate; it is simply not everything.

Common questions

Which airline is most punctual on Israel routes?

El Al, at 68.7% on time across 2,720 flights on those routes. The least punctual was Wizz Air UK at 55.4%.

Does Israel publish flight delay data?

No. Israel publishes no punctuality data of its own. The figures here come from the UK Civil Aviation Authority, which reports every flight at its own end of the route — so domestic flying inside Israel is not covered.

Can I claim compensation for a delayed flight from Israel?

There is no statutory compensation scheme for flights departing Israel. A cancellation normally entitles you to a refund under the airline's own conditions of carriage, and European rules may still reach your flight if the journey ends in the EU or UK on a European carrier.
