Abstract:

This paper will offer a new perspective on evaluating en route performance by exploring the relationship between en route delay and airport arrival delay. The paper proposes a simple method for assessing the multiplier for a particular en route delay event, and illustrate the procedure for a sample of flights and airports. The findings indicate that the multiplier varies vastly for en route delays of comparable length. These differences derive from the interaction between en route delay and terminal queuing processes.
