Phoenix to Kahului

What the Data Says About PHX to OGG

The Phoenix to Kahului corridor (PHX → OGG) covers roughly 2,845 miles and is served by 5 carriers, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 4,027 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 82.4% on-time rate with an average delay of 54.9 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 1,559 flights were recorded on this pairing — 0 cancelled (0.0%) and 15 diverted (1.0%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 5 carriers on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 4,027 total flights analyzed, the 82.4% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 54.9-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, Nov 2025 posted the best performance on this corridor at 97% on-time, while Feb 2024 came in at 74% on-time — a 23-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the PHX to OGG route, the combination of a 82.4% on-time rate, 54.9-minute average delay, 0.0% recent cancellation rate, and 5 available carriers is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
