OGG across all twelve months

Against the year

February next to OGG's other months

Against OGG's own year, February ran 4 points worse than the twelve-month rate of 83.0%, which makes it number nine of twelve months, best first. Either side of it, January ran 78.6% on time and March 73.3%, so a trip moved by a few weeks would have landed in a worse stretch.

Carrier by carrier

Which airlines ran best at OGG in February

The choice of carrier is not cosmetic here. Southwest Airlines arrives on time 95.1% of the time; Alaska Airlines manages 70.4%. Sample sizes sit next to every figure, because a two-point gap across 1,196 flights means less than a ten-point one.

Delay causes

What held OGG up in February

Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 48% of the 20,000 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.

Late-arriving aircraft
48%
Carrier
40%
National Airspace System
7%
Extreme weather
5%

48% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 20,000 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 9 to one. The split is drawn from 19,781 reported delay minutes.

Cancellations are rare at 0.76%, below the national 2.25% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.

Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.3% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 6.5% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
