Fargo to Phoenix

What the Data Says About FAR to PHX

The Fargo to Phoenix corridor (FAR → PHX) covers roughly 1,225 miles and is served by 6 carriers, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 500 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 83.8% on-time rate with an average delay of 123.3 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 500 flights were recorded on this pairing — 32 cancelled (6.4%) and 1 diverted (0.2%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 6 carriers on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 500 total flights analyzed, the 83.8% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 123.3-minute average delay applies only to flights that actually ran late, so it is not the average wait across all departures — the majority of flights on this route depart on time under the BTS definition of a delay (15+ minutes past schedule).

Monthly performance varies, so review the monthly table above to see specific periods. For travelers evaluating the FAR to PHX route, the combination of a 83.8% on-time rate, 123.3-minute average delay, 6.4% recent cancellation rate, and 6 available carriers is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
