What the Data Says About PVU to AZA

The Provo to Phoenix corridor (PVU → AZA) covers roughly 477 miles and is served by 1 carrier, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 3,602 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 76.7% on-time rate with an average delay of 93.4 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 1,346 flights were recorded on this pairing — 6 cancelled (0.4%) and 1 diverted (0.1%). 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 3,602 total flights analyzed, the 76.7% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 93.4-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, Aug 2025 posted the best performance on this corridor at 96% on-time, while Jul 2024 came in at 63% on-time — a 33-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the PVU to AZA route, the combination of a 76.7% on-time rate, 93.4-minute average delay, 0.4% recent cancellation rate, and 1 available carrier is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
