Los Angeles to Kahului

What the Data Says About LAX to OGG

The Los Angeles to Kahului corridor (LAX → OGG) covers roughly 2,486 miles and is served by 29 carriers, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 15,022 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 85.6% on-time rate with an average delay of 61.7 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 3,820 flights were recorded on this pairing — 13 cancelled (0.3%) and 8 diverted (0.2%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 29 carriers on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 15,022 total flights analyzed, the 85.6% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 61.7-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).

Looking at recent months, Mar 2025 posted the best performance on this corridor at 95% on-time, while Feb 2024 came in at 71% on-time — a 24-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the LAX to OGG route, the combination of a 85.6% on-time rate, 61.7-minute average delay, 0.3% recent cancellation rate, and 29 available carriers is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
