What the Data Says About PHX to SGU

The Phoenix to St. George corridor (PHX → SGU) covers roughly 262 miles and is served by 1 carrier, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 4,075 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 86.3% on-time rate with an average delay of 74.5 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 1,494 flights were recorded on this pairing — 0 cancelled (0.0%) and 3 diverted (0.2%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 1 carrier on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 4,075 total flights analyzed, the 86.3% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 74.5-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, Apr 2024 posted the best performance on this corridor at 93% on-time, while Mar 2025 came in at 64% on-time — a 29-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the PHX to SGU route, the combination of a 86.3% on-time rate, 74.5-minute average delay, 0.0% recent cancellation rate, and 1 available carrier is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
