ASQP Manual

Overview
The reporting carriers have uniformly elected to report their total domestic system operations.
ASQP covers nonstop scheduled-service flights between points within the United States (including territories) by the eighteen (18) U.S. air carriers that have at least one percent of total domestic scheduled-service passenger revenues, and the one (1) carrier that currently reports flight delay data voluntarily.
ASQP data are available within 60 days after the end of the month; i.e., June data are available no later than September 1.
The ASQP system has three views: Operations by Airport, Operations by City Pair, and Cancellations. Unregistered users can view Operations by Airport data. A login is required to access other parts of ASQP.
ASQP data can be viewed on the FAA Operations & Performance Data Web site.
For a complete overview of the ASQP system, see Airline Service Quality Performance (ASQP).
