The DGCA data mentioned that Vistara had the best on-time performance at four metro airports - Bengaluru, Delhi, Hyderabad and Mumbai - at 96.1 per cent in June.

A total of 19.84 lakh passengers travelled domestically in June this year, which is 83.5 per cent lower than the figures of the corresponding period last year, the DGCA said on Friday. Moreover, the occupancy rate or load factor for five out of six major Indian airlines was between 50 and 60 per cent in June 2020, it said.

�The passenger load factor in the month of June 2020 has shown a sharp decline due to limited air operations because of the COVID-19 outbreak,� the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said. The occupancy rate in SpiceJet was 68 per cent in June this year. However, the occupancy rate for other major airlines � IndiGo, GoAir, Vistara, AirAsia India and Air India � in the month of June stood at 60.7 per cent, 57.9 per cent, 56.6 per cent, 56.5 per cent and 56.5 per cent, respectively, as per the DGCA.
