What the record says about this route
The cancellation rate for the period is 2.85%, but almost all of it belongs to one month: June 2025, when 19.05% of flights on this route did not operate. Outside that month the route cancelled at around 1.21%. Whatever happened in June was an event, not the normal state of this route.
Which airline you fly changes the odds here. El Al arrived on time 42.1 points more often than Wizz Air UK over the same period on the same route — same airports, same weather, same air traffic control. A gap that survives all of that is about how the two airlines are run.
The two directions do not behave alike. LTN to TLV arrives on time 10.8 points less often than the outbound. Delay accumulates through the flying day, so whichever direction is scheduled later tends to carry the worse record — which is an argument for booking the morning departure if the choice exists.
The route has been getting worse. The later months run 9.4 points less punctual than the earlier ones. A drift of that size is rarely weather; it is more often an airline adding frequencies faster than the airports can absorb them.
Which airline should you fly on this route?
Over January 2025 – August 2026, El Al arrived on time most often on TLV to LTN. Wizz Air UK was late most often. Flights ran closest to schedule in March and worst in June.

What these figures do and do not tell you
Everything on this page is counted from the flights that actually operated on TLV to LTN during January 2025 – August 2026, as reported by the airlines to the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics. "On time" is the federal definition: arriving at the gate within 15 minutes of the scheduled time.
A route's record is a description of the past, not a forecast. Weather, air traffic control and the aircraft's earlier flights that day drive most delays, and none of them are predictable from a historical rate. What the record does tell you is whether this route runs late more often than others, and which carrier on it has the better history — which is the part you can actually act on when you book.
Cancellations are counted separately from delays because they are a different problem for a traveller: a late flight still gets you there. How the grade is calculated →
