Type-to-type selections

Each cell is the share of the row type's outbound selections; row and column totals are counts. The ribbons show the same totals: width is volume, and each ribbon takes the color of the type that sends more.

Notes

This data includes selections from standard NCEPT panels as well as priority and surge panels. Most selections result in a transfer, but some ultimately do not.

The legacy NCEPT era closed with the April 2026 panel, and the 2026 NCEPT/NRP MOU replaced the process. Results from the current process are tracked on the NCEPT Selections page, and the process itself is explained in the NCEPT Guide.

Facility names, types, and levels reflect current data, and the four combined control facilities appear as their nearest functional type: Guam CERAP and San Juan CERAP as Centers, Joshua TRACON as a TRACON, and Honolulu Control Facility as an up/down. Caribbean and Guam facilities are shown in boxed insets.
