Logan improves on-time arrival, departure rates
Logan improved its on-time performance for departures and arrivals in July, but not as much as most other large airports did, according to the latest data from the US Department of Transportation. Logan ranked 24th best in the top 32 major US airports with a rate of 73.74 percent in July, compared to ranking 18th with 71.16 percent in the same month last year. For arrivals, Logan ranked 28th with a rate of 67.46 percent, compared to ranking 27th with a rate of 63.35 percent in July 2007. The government considered flights to be on-time if they departed from or arrived at their gates within 15 minutes of schedule.
