HKG airline punctuality ranking β October 2026
October 1, 2026
Every month TripDip ranks every airline at Hong Kong International Airport by how often it actually runs on time, using official Airport Authority open flight data that we archive permanently. This edition covers Apr 22, 2026 to Sep 26, 2026 β 135,591 passenger legs across 87 operating carriers, of which 72 flew enough (β₯90 legs) to be ranked.
"On-time" means departing or arriving within 15 minutes of schedule; codeshares count against the airline that actually operated the flight. Full rules are on our methodology page.
