NOTES: Late departures are flights departing 15 minutes or more after the scheduled departure time. Late arrivals are flights arriving 15 minutes or more after the scheduled arrival time. Late departures and arrivals are strongly seasonal and are affected by weather and heavy demand in winter and summer months. Cancellations are flights that were not operated, but were listed in a carrier's computer reservation system within seven calendar days of the scheduled departure. Diversions are flights that left from the scheduled departure airport, but flew to a destination point other than the scheduled destination point.
In 2005, 20 air carriers reported on-time performance data, including all major U.S. carriers (carriers with at least one percent of total domestic scheduled-service passenger revenues) and other carriers that reported voluntarily. The number of carriers reporting in previous years is as follows: 2004 (19); 2003 (18); 2002 (10); 2001 (12); 2000 (11); 1999 (10); 1998 (10); 1997 (10); 1996 (10); and 1995 (10).
