MIA has long been considered among the worst airports in the U.S. when it comes to flight delays.
In 2022, the airport was ranked the fifth worst airport in the nation for flight delays, with 24 percent of its flights delayed, according to a report from the travel site Family Destinations Guide. (Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, ranked third on the list, had 26 percent of its flights delayed that year.)
