Abstract: Abstract Flight taxi time is a key index to measure the operation efficiency of large airports. There are many factors affecting the taxiing process of the flight at the airport. Firstly, the taxi time of arrival and departure flights was defined and its composition was analyzed. Based on the taxiing time of actual flight operation, the average taxi time of flights at many large airports in China and the world was compared. The taxi out time of departure flights was mainly concentrated on 15–20 min. Arrival flights took significantly less taxi in time than departure flights, usually about 10 min. Four main reasons leading to the increase of taxi time were analyzed. Finally, the improvement measures were proposed from five aspects, including coordinated utilization of airport resources, improvement of runway release efficiency and optimization of taxiing hot spot area.
