If you want to avoid flight cancellations, you might want to avoid New York City.
That’s according to new data from AirHelp, which helps travelers process claims related to flight disruptions around the world. The company looks at the most cancellation-ridden airports in the U.S.
To inform its rankings, AirHelp analyzed a total of 37,000 cancellations across 400 U.S. airports from May 27 to July 15 — a window the company says reflects peak summer travel mayhem. While the average American airport saw 2.6% of its flights canceled during that time, the most affected hubs — New York’s newly renovated LaGuardia and Newark Liberty International in New Jersey — had almost three times as many disruptions, with 7.7% and 7.6%, respectively.
