Built from the US DOT Bureau of Transportation Statistics on-time reports (Jun 2025 to May 2026), FAA ground stop and delay program advisories, and 20 years of airport weather observations.

SFB to CVG questions
- What time of day is best to fly SFB to CVG?

- Which airline is most on time from SFB to CVG?
- Allegiant, with a season-adjusted 66% chance of operating and arriving on time over 344 flights. The adjustment compares each airline with what the route did in the months it flew, so a carrier that skipped a stormy month gets no free credit.

- June (53% on time); the best was October (81%), averaged over Jun 2023 to May 2026.
- Is this a prediction for my flight?
