Summary of Flight Destinations & Frequency from a specified city

I'm often interested in figuring out what destinations I can get to non-stop with a particular airline from a particular origin city; this is helpful in getting a sense for what airline might have more flexibility for same day changes or in figuring out what cities I could go to with miles from a particular airline / alliance.

For example, for JetBlue from LAX, we have the following direct flights

HNL (Honolulu), 3x daily
FLL (Fort Lauderdale), 2x daily
JFK (New York), 2x daily
BOS (Boston), 1x daily
BUF (Buffalo), 1x daily

Options which aren't great:

  • Airline route maps (e.g. jetBlue) typically show all the destinations available (making it hard to distinguish between nonstop routes and connecting routes), and do not provide frequency information.
  • Airport sites (e.g. LAX) typically allow you to filter by airline, but list the flights individually.

Here's what I typically do:

  • Searching Google for a particular city provides an overview of what nonstop flights are available:

  • Searching Google for a pair of cities I am interested in lists the specific flights, and when they run:

Unfortunately, this process is still relatively manual; are there any better alternatives?



Best Answer

If a particular airport has a tabular listing of all flights, usually you can copy the entire table and paste it into a spreadsheet. Then you can filter or sort by any column easily.

This works on almost any HTML table in Safari. I think I've also done it with other browsers.

If you get unwanted formatting, you can paste special or first paste into a plain text file.

What is a frequency in a flight schedule?

Airline frequency is how many services in a set time period an airline may provide. Typically, these are found on shorter routes between two large urban destinations, with business passengers often demanding multiple flights throughout the day.

Why some airlines are increasing more frequencies in their aircraft schedule?

In response to increasing demand, airlines may increase capacity by increasing the frequency of flights or they may choose to increase aircraft size. This may yield operating cost economies.
