Abstract

Airlines occasionally either delay or completely cancel scheduled flights. Often the explicit reason is inclement weather, however, other factors, including loadfactor, might influence the delay/cancel decision. This paper presents an empirical analysis of US airlines flight cancellations considering loadfactor and weather at origin and destination. The data spans May 2022 to June 2023.
