What the data says

Morning-you made the right choice.

MCO–BNA flights departing between 6–9 AM arrived on time 93% of the time, versus 57% between 9 PM–12 AM.

Sunday scaries are real for this one.

MCO–BNA flights arrived on time 84% of the time on Wednesdays and just 69% on Sundays. That gap is worth planning around.

Southwest Airlines has a slight edge here.
