I dunno... I fly Frontier A LOT, and consider their percentage of delayed flights very low. I also occasionally fly Spirit, Southwest, Aeromexico and occasionally AA, and all of them--at least in my experience--have been delayed or even cancelled far more often. It's a much smaller sample size, but 100% of the AA flights I've been on, about 40% of the Sprit flights and maybe 25% of the Southwest flights have been delayed by an hour or more.
And don't even get me started on Allegiant... LOL
