MQ 3761 earns an A. Close to nine flights in ten arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 12 points better than the national rate of 77.3%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs close to two hours. That rests on 285 flights, with a median arrival 17 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, MQ 3761's record is 12 points better than the US average of 77.3%. That gap is worth roughly 116 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 285 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 17 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.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 07:00 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and MQ 3761 runs level with that at 88.9%. 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 3761 quarter by quarter

The worst days
Worst days for MQ 3761
The latest arrival of the period was on 1 February 2026, 8 hours 25 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as a late-arriving aircraft. The same cause led on three of the five worst days.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 1 February 2026 | 8 hours 25 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 12 December 2025 | 6 hours 31 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 22 February 2026 | 5 hours 17 minutes | Carrier |
| 7 December 2025 | 3 hours 58 minutes | Extreme weather |
| 31 August 2026 | 3 hours 45 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
Delay causes
Why MQ 3761 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 3,141 reported delay minutes.
- 37%Carrier
- 36%Late-arriving aircraft
- 15%National Airspace System
- 13%Extreme weather
Extreme weather accounts for 13% 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 2.1 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 3,141 delay minutes reported on MQ 3761.
Cancellations sit at 1.40% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.35%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
5.0% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last close to two hours, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 868 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 285 flights under MQ 3761 in the data flew TRI to DFW. 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. 285 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 3761
For a booking, MQ 3761 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 88.9% on time and 1.40% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
