British Airways is the UK's flag-carrying airline with one of the largest fleets in the world, but its on-time performance is not always good. According to aviation industry analyst OAG, in 2023 BA flew nearly 300,000 flights and almost 40% of those arrived at least 15 minutes late. That's around 120,000 late flights in total.
If you're affected by delays and disruption to a BA scheduled flight, you can start by talking to the airline staff at the airport. Try to find out if there is a reason for the delay and get proof of this, e.g. photographs of information screens.
