KATU NEWS: Sea-Tac Named One of World's Most Punctual Airports
Despite a holiday season filled with delayed and canceled flights, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) was one of the most punctual in the world in 2022.
SEA ranked No. 8 in Cirium's list of top-performing global airports of 2022. The online tracker's on-time rankings were calculated by on-time departures — a flight that arrives within 15 minutes of the scheduled gate arrival — and total flights.
According to Cirium, 81.04% of SEA's flights boasted on-time departures out of 383,250 total flights, good for fifth place among American airports.
