How we count

  • The window is 30 UTC days by scheduled arrival, October 13, 2026 to November 11, 2026, at the 140 covered airports with recorded arrivals.
  • Both conditional figures use the same arrivals as the overall figures.
  • US departures use FAA records. Elsewhere, times follow each airport’s own report: some show take-off, others pushback.
  • A departure counts as more than 60 minutes late by its actual time, or its last estimate if it never left.
  • Codeshares count once, under the operating flight number. Diverted flights and flights with no recorded outcome are excluded.
