Every carrier on DFW to GSO, 930 flights

These figures cover 210 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 13 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 DFW to GSO

Envoy flew 210 of the 930 flights on DFW to GSO, about 23% of it. Its 90.0% on time is 23 points better than the route as a whole, which runs 66.8%. Ranked by on-time rate it is first of two carriers on the route, where the range runs from Envoy at 90.0% to American at 59.8%.

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 210 flights.

There are not enough flights in each departure window to split Envoy's DFW to GSO record by time of day without the percentages moving on noise. The headline rate of 90.0% is the reliable figure here.

Across the year

Envoy on DFW to GSO through the year

Jul–Sep 202592 flights89.1%
Oct–Dec 202533 flights87.9%
Apr–Jun 202685 flights91.7%

Scale runs 80% to 95%. 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 90.0% on time across 210 flights.

Quarter by quarter Envoy on DFW to GSO held fairly steady: 89.1% in Jul–Sep 2025, 87.9% in Oct–Dec 2025 and 91.7% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 4 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.

Delay causes

Why Envoy runs late on this route

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 1,102 reported delay minutes.

Carrier
35%
Late-arriving aircraft
31%
National Airspace System
28%
Extreme weather
6%

The largest share of delay minutes, 35%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 387 of the 1,102 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 1,102 reported delay minutes.

The practical consequence: the 8am–11am departure is the one that starts clean. Its aircraft has no earlier leg to be late from, which is exactly why that window shows 89.9% on time here.

Cancellations are rare at 0.48%, 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 stage length

What a delay here costs

Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.8% 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 999 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 82.2% on time across 209 flights, 8 points below 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 8 points of difference.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 210 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 DFW to GSO

Put together: treat all of this as provisional. 210 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 90.0% headline is the most reliable number on the page; the hour and month splits below it are built on a few dozen flights each. 209 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
