Philippine Airlines Among Asia’s ‘Most On-Time’ Airlines for 2024

​Philippine Airlines (PAL) has once again ranked among the top ten most punctual airlines in Asia-Pacific for 2024. PAL is now classified as the seventh most punctual airline, up one spot from #8 the previous year, and is the only Philippine carrier to be named one of Asia-Pacific's "Top Airline Performers."

​According to the 2024 Cirium On-Time Performance Report, PAL had an on-time arrival performance of 76.06% on over 112,000 flights across the Philippine flag carrier's global network.

In January 2024, PAL was the #1 Most Punctual Airline, with an on-time performance of 86.85%.

“We greatly appreciate the recognition for the monumental efforts of our employees, service partners and industry stakeholders in achieving this on-time performance milestone, which affirms the long-term investments we are making in enhancing reliability and efficiency in all our operations, and always at the highest level of safety in line with Philippine Airlines’ uncompromising safety culture,” said PAL President and Chief Operating Officer Capt. Stanley K. Ng. 

PAL's seventh-place ranking puts it ahead of most Southeast Asian, Chinese, Korean, and Australian carriers. Airlines from Japan, New Zealand, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Australia completed the top ten list for 2024.
