Are Air Nostrum Flight Disruptions That Common?

As a member of the Iberia Group, this regional airline runs the more short-haul routes on behalf of the parent company. The Air Nostrum flight numbers have Iberia codes to demonstrate how intertwined these two airlines are.

In 2022 and 2023, Iberia had an on-time rate of 86% and 85%, respectively, based on the 2023 Eurocontrol Aviation Overview. That translates to about 15% (3 in 20) of their flights arriving behind schedule. That’s well above the European average of 71%. But, for the 15% of passengers who experience Air Nostrum delayed flights, that’s little consolation.

For cancelled flights, Iberia topped the European group in our study of the continent’s top airlineswith a rate of 0.03% in 2022. Unfortunately, that increased fairly significantly in 2023 to 1.3%. Although having just over 1 flight in 100 cancelled doesn’t seem like much, landing on the Air Nostrum cancelled flight list can be devastating to your plans.

Air Nostrum uses Valencia Airport as its main hub, and if you’re boarding a flight or landing here, delays are more common. In August 2024 alone, 25% of routes were delayed.

Why Is Your Air Nostrum Flight Cancelled Today?

Unless you ask the airline, it’s hard to know exactly why your route is on the Air Nostrum cancelled flights list. But, here are some of the most common reasons:

  • Bad weather:Severe weather conditions like storms, fog, or heavy snow.
  • Technical issues: Mechanical problems or maintenance needs with the aircraft.
  • Air Traffic Control delays: Congestion or restrictions in the airspace.
  • Crew shortages: Insufficient crew due to illness, strikes, or other staffing issues.
  • Airport security concerns: Security threats or alerts at airports.
  • Operational Issues: Logistical problems with scheduling or ground handling.

How To Avoid Air Nostrum Flight Interruptions

  • Fly early: Early morning flights are generally less prone to delays that accumulate over the day. Weather conditions are often calmer, and air traffic is lighter, reducing the risk of delayed and cancelled flights.
  • Choose direct flights: Whenever possible, book non-stop flights to avoid delays due to layovers or missed connections. Fewer flights mean less risk of one letting you down.
  • Keep an eye on the weather: Monitor weather conditions at both airports to anticipate potential disruptions. If the weather looks poor, think about adjusting your travel plans.
  • Review Air Nostrum's punctuality: Before committing to a flight, check the on-time performance of Air Nostrum flights to identify any routes or times with a higher likelihood of delays (like the ones we listed).
