How Air France does on this route
Better or worse than the route itself?
Everyone flying Manchester to Paris (Charles de Gaulle) hits the same airspace and the same two airports, so the honest question is not whether the route is busy, it is whether this airline handles it better or worse than the others on it.
Against its own network it is 12.1 points worse than usual: Air France lands on time 68.6% of the time across all 13,558 of its UK flights a year, against 56.5% here.
In money terms: about 2 flights a month on this route land 3 hours or more late, which is about 1 flight in 90. Everyone on board one of those is owed £220 each, so a full aircraft is a five-figure bill for Air France.
