Did you travel during the holidays? I traveled on Thanksgiving and it wasn’t a bad experience at all. I live in St. Petersburg but I ended up flying out of the Orlando airport. My flight was on time and everything. With that being said, “Here is the most on-time airline in the United States.” Have a guess? well you will find out below.
I Flew Spirit During Thanksgiving
I actually had a pleasant experience flying Spirit on Thanksgiving. They are not the most on-time airline in the United States but they did come in at number 6 on this list. I usually don’t have anything positive to say about Spirit Airlines, but they were great this time around.
I purchased my ticket last minute and it was cheap. On top of that I believe I flew on one of their newer airplanes. It was spacious and relaxing. Never thought I would be saying this about Spirit and no they are not paying me (lol). When I talked about this on the radio many people were texting in that I must be getting a paid endorsement. Nope, I actually had no problems flying them on Thanksgiving. What is your take on Spirit? feel free to email me Babs@wild941.com

Cirium which is an aviation analytics company put this list together. The company said they incorporated flight data from over 600 sources to rank airlines and airports for their on-time performance. The company has been doing these reports for over 15 years. So, in other words “they know their stuff.”
Below are the 5 most on-time airlines in the United States. Amongst the 5 is also the most on-time airlines in the United States. Do you agree or disagree with this list? Again feel free to email me Babs@wld941.com. Be safe this new year and I hope all your dreams come true.
