Notes:

This table is a chronological list of incidents involving aircraft carriers that resulted in lost operational time, including sinkings, between September 1939 and August 1945.

Losses shown for men killed in action (KIA), missing in action (MIA), and wounded in action (WIA) and for aircraft are from several sources which sometime report widely varying numbers. A zero ("0") indicates no losses were reported by any source. A question mark ("?") indicates that at least one source reported losses occurred but did not quantify them. A blank entry indicates no information about losses was located. Not all sources were comprehensively searched.

Battle casualty figures are intended to include those of air groups (e.g., White Plains at Samar had only 13 minor casualties on board, but several flying in air groups were also killed ; see Hornfischer)

Aircraft losses are intended to include those lost in battle during action before and after carrier was sunk (e.g., IJN losses at Midway include all planes of Kido Butai, even those shot down over Midway Island.)

"Kamikaze" refers to aircraft flown on suicide missions by Japan's Special Attack Units.

Dates indicate when initial damage was done. Carriers may have sunk in subsequent days (e.g., Amagi sank 7/29/45, Ark Royal sank 11/14/41); Hornet sank 10/27/42.

USS Langley (CV-1/AV-3/SPT) is included above as an escort carrier (CVE) since it was providing the same functions as later CVEs when WWII began in the Pacific.
