A very large number of flights continue to be cancelled or experience significant delays at airports worldwide.<\/p>\n
In the peak summer season, the reasons for these situations are related to staff shortages, overbooking, and technical problems.<\/p>\n

Romanian passengers book their flight tickets as follows: 47.5% between 2 weeks and 2 months in advance, 37.5% more than 2 months in advance, and 15% are purchased within 2 weeks of departure.<\/p>\n
In most cases, 61.5% of passengers purchase their flight ticket and accommodation together.<\/p>\n
