The earlier the departure - the less delay

As you know, a lie is divided into the usual, arrogant and statistics. And I brought you some of the last.

The website FiveThirtyEight , after analyzing the data of the Bureau of Transportation Statistics of the USA from 1995 to 2014 , found that the best time to fly, if you do not like to sit at the airport on suitcases all day - from 6 to 7 am, the average delay in this interval was only 8, 6 minutes.

Delays for flights departing closer to 6 or between 7 and 8 am are also almost minimal. Further delays only increase, reaching a peak of 20.7 minutes by 6 pm. The next best time for departure is after ten in the evening.
