What the record says about this route
The two directions do not behave alike. GRI to AZA arrives on time 10.7 points less often than the outbound. Delay accumulates through the flying day, so whichever direction is scheduled later tends to carry the worse record — which is an argument for booking the morning departure if the choice exists.
Only Allegiant Air flies this route in the published record, so there is no choice to weigh — the route's figures and the airline's are the same figures.
Flights from Phoenix to Grand Island keep to schedule more reliably than most. On a route this punctual the day you fly matters more than the airline you pick.
This is a thin route — 283 flights across the whole period. On a route this infrequent a cancellation is far more costly than the rate suggests, because the next departure may not be the same day.
Which airline should you fly on this route?
Over July 2024 – July 2026, Allegiant Air arrived on time most often on AZA to GRI. Flights ran closest to schedule in August and worst in December.

What these figures do and do not tell you
Everything on this page is counted from the flights that actually operated on AZA to GRI during July 2024 – July 2026, as reported by the airlines to the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics. "On time" is the federal definition: arriving at the gate within 15 minutes of the scheduled time.
A route's record is a description of the past, not a forecast. Weather, air traffic control and the aircraft's earlier flights that day drive most delays, and none of them are predictable from a historical rate. What the record does tell you is whether this route runs late more often than others, and which carrier on it has the better history — which is the part you can actually act on when you book.
Cancellations are counted separately from delays because they are a different problem for a traveller: a late flight still gets you there. How the grade is calculated →
