Cirium’s report focused on North American flights; they’ve tracked over 5 million flights, and now we have a 2022 on-time flight report. Cerium is issued monthly on-time performance reports for airlines. It shows which airline had the best on-time performance in 2022. Delta Air Lines, which is based in Atlanta, is at the top. It had 84.1% on-time performance.

What were the criteria for on-time flights?

Cirium listed on-time all flights that arrive within 15 minutes of the scheduled arrival time. They have tracked 5,071,137 flights between January 1, 2022, and December 15, 2022, with over 72% on-time arrivals.

The CEO of Cirium Jeremy Bowen congratulates Delta Air Lines for ranking on top. After the pandemic and lockdown restarting the regulation of flights on time was not an easy task, but Delta had done very well, he said.
