Home - CBSNews.com | Summer air travel could be rough. Here's how travelers can prepare. AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Summer air travel is turning into a headache as rising fares, widespread delays, and massive flight cancellations threaten to ruin travelers’ plans. A U.S. PIRG Education Fund report shows on‑time arrivals in 2025 were the worst since 2014, with one in twelve flights arriving an hour late and more than 100,000 flights canceled—American, Frontier and JetBlue faring the poorest, while Hawaiian, Delta and Southwest kept better schedules. The main drivers are a shortage of air‑traffic controllers, weather disruptions, airlines over‑scheduling beyond airport capacity, and soaring jet‑fuel costs linked to the Iran war, prompting higher fares and route cuts. Some airports, like Chicago O’Hare, have imposed flight reductions, and passenger volumes are expected to rise sharply, with United forecasting 53 million flyers this summer. Travelers should remember that federal law guarantees refunds for canceled flights, consider booking early‑morning departures (6‑8 a.m.) which are 18 % more likely to be on time, and weigh the trade‑off between low‑cost, multi‑stop itineraries and the risk of further disruptions.
