Abstract
Aviation service plays an indispensable role in the process of social
and economic development. In this process, the problem of flight punctuality
becomes more and more serious. Flight delay will bring a variety of implicit and
explicit losses to individual passengers and airlines, so it is necessary to analyze
the influencing factors of flight punctuality rate. Complex network can be used
to study various objects with complex relations, obtain the relations of these
objects and calculate the influence of different indicators on the objects. This
article mainly has carried on the three aspects: Firstly, get the flight data from the
Internet, and use the knowledge of the complex network to obtain the data to
build into a directed network. Secondly, to analyze the building of directed
network, computing network centricity index, study the influence of different
centricity index for flight punctuality. Thirdly, get the statistics of airport
indicators including network indicators and calculate the correlation of different
indicators and punctuality. Through the above three points, the degree of
influence of different influencing factors on flight on-time rate is studied, which
is the positive influence or the negative influence. The study of these factors will
provide some references for the practical application of the improvement of
flight punctuality.
