SLC International Airport gets best in on-time arrival

Salt Lake City International Airport recorded the best on-time arrival record among major U.S. airports last year, helped by Delta Air Lines, which was able to maintain its performance level despite filing for bankruptcy in September, according to a recent release from Ski Utah.

The U.S. Transportation Department reported through December, 83.46 percent of all flights arriving at the airport landed on time at SLC International putting the airport at the top of the government’s list of the 33 biggest airports around the country. The previous year, SLC International was No. 3.
