## Operational Efficiency Optimization Using Machine Learning
* Analysis of a 20,000 flight dataset to improve DGCA compliance and delay prediction.
* Utilizes Random Forest ML for predictive modeling.

## 2025 Flight Distribution Analysis
* Total Flights Analyzed: 20,000.
* Status Breakdown: 15% On-Time (3,000), 75% Delayed (15,000), 10% Cancelled (2,000).
* Primary Delay Cause: Operation failure at 65% (13,000 flights).
* Cancellation Root Causes: DGCA Non-Adherence (7.5%) and Aircraft Over-Utilization (2.5%).

## Performance Metrics & Root Cause Insight
* Current Cancellation Rate: 10.0% (10x industry average).
* Average Delay: 22.01 minutes per flight.
* Key Findings: 65% of delays are driven by internal operational inefficiency rather than external factors like weather.

## Operational Improvement Strategy
* Objective: Eliminate 100% of DGCA non-adherence and reduce operational failure delays by 60%.
* Focus: Targeting controllable internal factors including aircraft utilization and crew fatigue.

## Business Impact & Results
* Cancellation Rate Improvement: Reduced from 10.0% to 0.75%.
* Delay Reduction: average delay per flight decreased from 22.01 min to 10.55 min (52% reduction).
* Total Impact: 9.25% fewer cancellations across the fleet.
