Delay causes

Why Envoy runs late on this route

Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 69% of the 9,757 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.

  • Late-arriving aircraft
    69%
  • National Airspace System
    17%
  • Carrier
    11%
  • Extreme weather
    3%

69% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 9,757 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 23 to one. The split is drawn from 9,757 reported delay minutes.

Cancellations sit at 1.90% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.27%.

Connections and stage length

What a delay here costs

15.8% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.

The 752 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.

The return leg is a different operation and performs like one: it runs 92.1% on time across 369 flights, 22 points above this direction. Departure banks, aircraft rotations and the congestion at each end all differ, so scoring the two directions together would average away a real 22 points of difference.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 369 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 Envoy on BOS to CVG

Put together: treat all of this as provisional. 369 flights over twelve months is enough to clear this site's floor and not enough to be confident to better than a couple of points. The 69.8% headline is the most reliable number on the page; the hour and month splits below it are built on a few dozen flights each. 361 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
