Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s MQ 4095, 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 4095 lands a B+, 5 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in six arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by roughly 55 minutes on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 280 flights, with a median arrival 5 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, MQ 4095's record is 5 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 51 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 280 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 5 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 4095 flies
MQ 4095 flies DFW to BIL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 11:29, used on 71 of 280 flights, with 11:35 (65 flights) and 11:14 (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 11:29 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and MQ 4095 runs 4 points better at 82.7%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
MQ 4095 quarter by quarter
MQ 4095 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 89.0% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 78.7%, a swing of 10 points on roughly 93 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 4095 did best on Tuesday at 92.5% on time and worst on Saturday at 74.4%. Each day rests on about 40 flights, so a gap of 18 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why MQ 4095 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 64% of the 2,575 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.
- 64%Late-arriving aircraft
- 20%National Airspace System
- 9%Carrier
- 7%Extreme weather
64% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. That is a cascade, and cascades start small and grow through the day. Across 2,575 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 9 to one. It is the strongest argument for booking the first departure of the morning, when the aircraft has been sitting at the gate overnight with nothing to inherit. The split is drawn from 2,575 delay minutes reported on MQ 4095.
Cancellations are rare at 0.36%, 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
5.4% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last roughly 55 minutes, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 1,081 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.
MQ 4095 is not only a DFW to BIL flight. It also flew BIL to DFW (279 flights, 78.8% on time) often enough to be scored on its own. Airlines attach one number to several legs of an aircraft's day, and each leg keeps its own record here, so check which city pair is on your booking before reading a rate.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 280 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.
