What the data says

The late departure is the smart one here.

RNO–JFK flights departing between 9 PM–12 AM arrived on time 62% of the time, versus 36% between 12–3 PM.

Sunday scaries are real for this one.

RNO–JFK flights arrived on time 67% of the time on Fridays and just 30% on Sundays. That gap is worth planning around.

Recent months have been rougher.

RNO–JFK flights arrived on time 42% of the time over the last three months in the data, compared with 64% in the three months before that.
