HONOLULU – Hawaiian Airlines remained the nation’s most punctual carrier in 2021, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation, marking the 18th straight year its guests have enjoyed the best on-time performance in the U.S. industry.
Hawaiian’s flights averaged a 90.1 per cent on-time rate in 2021, exceeding the U.S. industry average by nine percentage points.
“I am immensely grateful for all our teams who worked so hard to keep our guests at the forefront of everything they do,” said Peter Ingram, president and CEO at Hawaiian Airlines. “They overcame the continued operational challenges of the pandemic to once again deliver on our industry-leading punctuality as we grew our U.S. domestic network, restored inter-island flights and resumed international services, supported essential cargo transportation and charter flights, and served our local community with aloha. Our recovery is a testament to their tireless efforts, and I’m truly honoured to be a part of this airline.”
Last year, Hawaiian expanded its North America presence with a new nonstop service between Honolulu and Austin, Orlando and Ontario, California. as well as a new service between Maui and Long Beach and Phoenix. The carrier also restored international services to American Samoa, Tahiti and Sydney.
