What the record says about SNA

Departures from Santa Ana run late more often than average — enough that a tight connection at the far end deserves a second look.

The airlines flying from here are not equally affected. Alaska Airlines left on time 27.3 points more often than SkyWest Airlines from the same airport — which is the clearest evidence available that a delayed departure is not purely the airport's fault.
