《Which? Travel》主编罗里·博兰表示:“乘客很可能会觉得,航班时刻表‘增肥’是航空公司对乘客耍的新把戏。”
"Carriers are quick to claim that adding 10, 20 and even 30 minutes to flights will improve on-time performance. The accompanying slump in punctuality over recent years suggests it hasn’t helped much.
“航空公司声称,将航班时间增加10、20甚至是30分钟,将会改善准点率。但近年来准点率的下滑表明这样做并未起到多大作用。”
"Instead, longer scheduled flight times are likely to mean passengers spend more time sitting around at the gate or on the plane itself, just so the airline can pat itself on the back for being ‘on time’ at your destination.
“相反,更长的计划飞行时间很可能意味着乘客要花更多的时间坐在登机口附近或飞机上面,这样航空公司就可以自夸保证了‘航班准点’。”
"Conveniently, it could also reduce the number of instances when an airline has to pay you compensation for a flight delay.”
“另外,这样也可以减少航空公司因为航班延误而向乘客支付赔偿的情况。”
According to Which?, BA, easyJet and Ryanair were all less punctual last year than in 2009, with easyJet recording a 10% fall in punctuality during the eight-year period.
据《Which?》杂志的数据显示,英航、易捷和瑞安去年的准点率都低于2009年,易捷在八年间的准点率下降了10%。
