Quote:
Gleaming airports. Modern fleets. "But the most basic need of any air traveller--to get from point A to point B on time--has suffered.
China's on-time statistics, unlike that of other nations, "only measures when aircraft close their doors, not when they take off, so the true number of on-time flights is lower still.
"The civil aviation authority [of China] last year blamed 41 per cent of delays on airlines themselves, with problems ranging from poor fleet co-ordination to inexperienced flight crews.
My comment: Naturally "civil aviation authority" wants to blame airlines. It is always other people's faults.
