Envoy Air on-time performance

Leaving on time and arriving on time are two different numbers

Pushed back on time

82.1% Left the gate less than 15 minutes behind the scheduled time.

Reached the gate on time

80% Arrived less than 15 minutes behind the scheduled time.

Cancelled

1.8% Share of scheduled flights that never flew.

Typical delay when late

65 min Averaged over flights 15 minutes or more behind.

An airline can leave late and still arrive on time if the schedule has padding in it, or leave on time and lose the margin in the air. A cancelled flight is neither on time nor late — it drops out of both rates entirely, which is why the cancellation figure has to be read alongside them rather than after them.

What the delays were put down to

Airlines file a reason with every arrival running 15 minutes late or more. The delay minutes on late Envoy Air arrivals break down with 44.2% put down to late-arriving aircraft and 22.3% to air traffic & airport volume.

Late-arriving aircraft is the knock-on category: the plane came in late, so it went out late again. It is why a 7am problem in Newark is still a problem in Denver at dinnertime, and why it is usually the biggest slice on the bar.

Month by month, July 2023–June 2026

The same figure as the board row above, one month at a time. Three years is enough to show the summer trough and the autumn recovery repeating, which is the point of plotting it rather than quoting a single month.

Where Envoy Air flies from most

Top ten airports by departures. The on-time share here is departure-based, so it matches this airline’s row in each airport’s own table.

The name on the ticket may not be this one

Envoy Air is a regional airline. It flies short and medium routes under the colors and flight numbers of the major carriers — your ticket may well say American, Delta or United — and it files its own on-time record with the government under its own name. That is why it appears here as an airline in its own right, and why its numbers are not folded into the brand on the boarding pass.

Against the rest of the industry

One airline in isolation is hard to read. The comparison table puts all 15 reporting carriers side by side on the same three measures.

Departure on time means pushback less than 15 minutes behind schedule; arrival on time means reaching the gate less than 15 minutes behind schedule. Envoy Air pushed back on time more often than it parked on time — 2.1 points more often, the gap that opens up in the air and on the taxiway.

What is Envoy Air’s cancellation rate?

1.8% of scheduled Envoy Air flights were cancelled, July 2023 through June 2026. Cancellations sit outside the on-time rate entirely: a cancelled flight is neither on time nor late, which is why the two numbers have to be read together.

What causes Envoy Air delays?

Of the delay minutes on late Envoy Air arrivals, 44.2% were filed as late-arriving aircraft and 22.3% as air traffic & airport volume. Severe weather accounted for 11.6%, though that is not the whole weather story: conditions bad enough to slow the system as a whole are filed under air traffic and airport volume instead.

Is Envoy Air the airline on my ticket?

Envoy Air is a regional airline. It flies short and medium routes under the colors and flight numbers of the major carriers — your ticket may well say American, Delta or United — and it files its own on-time record with the government under its own name. That is why it appears here as an airline in its own right, and why its numbers are not folded into the brand on the boarding pass.
