The rise of aviation is not only ensuring that flight connections are gradually returning. Problems in connection with a flight also find their way back.

This is shown by recently evaluated data from Airhelp, a portal that provides passengers with legal support in such cases. The company cites an analysis of the flight data of all flights that departed from German airports in June 2021 as the basis for the findings.

The connection between Düsseldorf and Tenerife was particularly prone to failure. 90 percent of passengers were affected by unscheduled flights in June. On flights from Düsseldorf to the Canary Island of Fuerteventura, 67 percent of passengers experienced irregularities. Of many delays and cancellations, flights from Frankfurt to Nairobi (82 percent), Beirut (79 percent) or Lagos (76 percent) were also said to have been.

Trips to Turkey also suffer more often from flight breakdowns, passengers here have to expect more delays or cancellations. This is reported by reisevor9.de. A total of nine of the most disruptive routes would have a Turkish airport (Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Kayseri) to their destination. On average, there are problems with every second flight on these routes.
