This article examines the pervasive issue of flight delays in Iranian airports and the factors affecting it. As air travel continues to play an important role in global connectivity and economic growth, understanding the causes and consequences of flight delays becomes critical. The importance of speed as the main indicator in the aviation industry compared to other means of transportation caused the issue of flight delays to be looked at more sensitively. Also, one of the influential factors for the performance of airline companies and the level of passenger satisfaction is the issue of flight delays and cancellations by the company. Using a comprehensive data set and statistical analyses, we examine the percentage of delayed flights in Iran's main airports and clarify the underlying factors affecting these delays. Then, using the defined index, we compare the performance of the most important Iranian airlines in terms of flight delays and cancellations in recent years using available data. As a result of these calculations, all domestic airlines in Iran, like other countries in the world, experience the most delays in the winter season. According to the evidence, this issue is predictable to a good extent and more efforts should be made in this field so that there is less impact on the economy of the country and the comfort of passengers during the trip
