Every carrier on CLE to MIA, 842 flights

These figures cover 111 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.

Carrier by carrier

Envoy against every carrier on CLE to MIA

Envoy flew 111 of the 842 flights on CLE to MIA, about 13% of it. Its 71.6% on time is 8 points worse than the route as a whole, which runs 79.5%. Ranked by on-time rate it is number three of four carriers on the route, where the range runs from American at 85.8% to Republic at 44.4%. Two of those carriers flew fewer than 365 flights here, so treat their positions as rough.

Only one carrier clears this site's 365-flight floor here, so there is no comparison to draw. The table below is the full picture.

Departure window

When Envoy runs best on this route

Departure time is the single lever a traveller controls, and it moves the odds more than most people expect. Each bar below is the on-time rate for flights scheduled to leave inside that window, across 111 flights.

There are not enough flights in each departure window to split Envoy's CLE to MIA record by time of day without the percentages moving on noise. The headline rate of 71.6% is the reliable figure here.

Across the year

Envoy on CLE to MIA through the year

Oct–Dec 202560 flights67.2%
Jan–Mar 202610 flights—
Apr–Jun 202641 flights75.6%

Scale runs 60% to 80%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

Monthly volumes are too low here to break the year into twelve reliable readings. What the twelve-month total says is 71.6% on time across 111 flights.

Split by quarter, Envoy on CLE to MIA logged 60 flights in Oct–Dec 2025, 10 flights in Jan–Mar 2026 and 41 flights in Apr–Jun 2026. Fewer than three of those quarters carried the 30 completed flights this site needs before printing a rate, so the 71.6% annual figure is the one to use.

Delay causes

Why Envoy runs late on this route

One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 61% of the 1,912 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.

19%

Extreme weather
1%

61% 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 1,912 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 61 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 1,912 reported delay minutes.

Cancellations sit at 1.80% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.

Connections and stage length

What a delay here costs

7.3% 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 about an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.

The 1,080 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.

The return leg is a different operation and performs like one: it runs 77.8% on time across 111 flights, 6 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 6 points of difference.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 111 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 CLE to MIA

Put together: treat all of this as provisional. 111 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 71.6% headline is the most reliable number on the page; the hour and month splits below it are built on a few dozen flights each. 109 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
