Where can we find information about the cause of a flight's delay?

3/26/2015 12:20:35 PM

In the United States, this information is reported to the Department of Transportation for

Carriers that have 1 percent of total domestic scheduled-service passenger revenue report on-time data and the causes of delay. In 2014, there are 14 carriers reporting these numbers.

The data are available at:

http://www.transtats.bts.gov/OT_Delay/OT_DelayCause1.asp

The delays are categorized as:

  • Security
  • Weather
  • National Aviation System
  • Late Arriving Aircraft
  • Carrier

There is no global repository for this information (a good business idea though!) however there would be similar requirements in many countries.
