Recorded outcomes

  • On time 79.9% 394,843
  • Delayed >15 min 19.0% 94,155
  • Cancelled 1.1% 5,436
  • Missing departure time 0.0% 0

All recorded flights with a known scheduled local time, counted once. Missing actual times are shown separately.

On time means departing no more than 15 minutes after schedule. Cancelled flights and flights missing departure times are excluded from the on-time rate and average delay.

Environment

Jet fuel consumed

Every gallon the airline reports to the US Department of Transportation (airline fuel cost and consumption report) — all scheduled and charter flights, domestic and international.

In June 2026, Alaska Airlines consumed 85,954,315 US gallons of fuel (80,397,025 on domestic and 5,557,290 on international flights), according to the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics — about 838,055 tonnes of CO₂.
