Jacksonville Airport (JAX) Flight Status

What our own measurement shows

Over a 30-day period, our own reception measurement recorded an average of 0.5 movements per day at Jacksonville International, which places JAX in the quiet range within our data. Two notes help put that number in perspective. First, it is our own measurement, so the radar on this page and the arrivals and departures pages linked under it remain the place to look for current arrivals and departures at JAX. Second, a low count in our measurement says nothing about individual flights; it simply means we recorded few movements at this location during the period. Our package for Jacksonville lists no busiest window, so the daily average is the only traffic figure we can offer for JAX; the radar on this page shows how the day actually unfolds.

Airlines measured at Jacksonville

Three carriers appeared in our 30-day measurement at Jacksonville International. American Airlines and United Airlines were each recorded twice during the period, and Southwest Airlines once. The counts are small and close together, so we list all three rather than single out a leader. If you are following a specific flight, the airline pages are often the faster route: American Airlines flight status, United Airlines flight status and Southwest flight status.
