MQ 3386 earns an A+. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 10 points better than the national rate of 77.3%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs a little over an hour. That rests on 365 flights, with a median arrival 7 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, MQ 3386's record is 10 points better than the US average of 77.3%. That gap is worth roughly 95 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 365 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 7 minutes early, which is the part an average hides: most flights here are fine, and the on-time rate is decided by a tail of badly late ones. On-time means under 15 minutes late, the DOT's own threshold.

A 06:00 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and MQ 3386 runs 3 points worse at 86.8%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year
MQ 3386 quarter by quarter
MQ 3386 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 92.3% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 80.9%, a swing of 11 points on roughly 73 flights a quarter. The twelve-month rate averages over that, so if you are flying in a weak quarter the quarter's own figure is the better guide.

By weekday, MQ 3386 did best on Wednesday at 92.3% on time and worst on Sunday at 76.9%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 15 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Share of 363 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
Time lost at the gate mostly stays lost. Of 29 departures that left 15 minutes late or more, only 2 made it up before arrival. In the other direction, 21 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at MIA.
The worst days
Worst days for MQ 3386
The latest arrival of the period was on 24 December 2025, 6 hours 3 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as extreme weather. The same cause led on four of the five worst days.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 24 December 2025 | 6 hours 3 minutes | Extreme weather |
| 3 January 2026 | 5 hours 14 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 7 March 2026 | 3 hours 44 minutes | Extreme weather |

Delay causes
Why MQ 3386 runs late
Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 3,629 reported delay minutes.
- 36%Extreme weather
- 36%Carrier
- 19%National Airspace System
- 8%Late-arriving aircraft
Extreme weather accounts for 36% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 6.0 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 3,629 delay minutes reported on MQ 3386.
Cancellations are rare at 0.55%, below the national 1.89% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 4.4% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
The 530 miles between these two airports put this in the middle of the US network, around two and a half to three hours of block time. That is enough cruise to absorb a ten-minute late pushback and not enough to absorb thirty.
Every one of the 365 flights under MQ 3386 in the data flew PNS to MIA. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 365 flights over twelve months is enough to clear this site's floor but not enough to pin the rate down tightly, and a single bad week moves it by more than a point. Treat the grade as a rough reading.
What to do with this
Booking MQ 3386
For a booking, MQ 3386 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 86.8% on time and 0.55% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
