Period: July 2025 to June 2026

Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s MQ 4033, check with Envoy Air. Envoy Air flies under contract for larger airlines, so a ticket for this flight may show a different airline code and number.

MQ 4033 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 13 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs an hour and a half. That rests on 363 flights, with a median arrival 10 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, MQ 4033's record is 13 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 130 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 363 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 10 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.

Schedule

When MQ 4033 flies

MQ 4033 flies XNA to PHX without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 08:30, used on 95 of 363 flights, with 08:15 (57 flights) and 08:18 (54 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.

A 08:30 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and MQ 4033 runs 7 points better at 90.6%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Against the route

MQ 4033 next to XNA to PHX

Every carrier on XNA to PHX combined arrived on time 86.7% of the time across 830 flights, so MQ 4033 is 4 points ahead of it. Envoy flew 701 flights on the same city pair under all its flight numbers, including this one, and those ran 88.3% on time. Across its whole network Envoy Air managed 80.2%, which this flight beats by 10 points.

Across the year

MQ 4033 quarter by quarter

Quarter by quarter MQ 4033 held fairly steady: 86.7% in Jul–Sep 2025, 89.1% in Oct–Dec 2025, 96.6% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 90.1% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 10 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.

Jul–Sep 202590 flights86.7%
Oct–Dec 202592 flights89.1%
Jan–Mar 202690 flights96.6%

Scale runs 80% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, MQ 4033 did best on Wednesday at 96.1% on time and worst on Sunday at 82.0%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 14 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why MQ 4033 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 58% of the 2,940 delay minutes carriers reported, and the remaining four split what is left. The split is by minutes rather than by flights, so a few very long delays count for as much as many short ones.

58%
Extreme weather
20%
Carrier
15%
National Airspace System
7%

Extreme weather accounts for 20% 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 3.2 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 2,940 delay minutes reported on MQ 4033.

Cancellations are rare at 0.55%, below the national 1.81% 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 3.3% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% 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 1,023 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. It is also long enough that the aircraft usually flies three or four legs a day rather than six, which slows how fast delay compounds.

Every one of the 363 flights under MQ 4033 in the data flew XNA to PHX. 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. 363 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 4033

For a booking, MQ 4033 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 90.6% on time and 0.55% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
