These figures cover 472 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 11 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.

Departure window

When Republic 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 472 flights.

  • 5am–8am12 flights—
  • 8am–11am212 flights86.1%
  • 11am–2pm14 flights—
  • 2pm–5pm234 flights81.2%
  • 5pm–8pm—
  • 8pm–5am—

Scale runs 75% to 90%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

The early departures do better, though not dramatically: 86.1% on time for the 8am–11am window against 81.2% for 2pm–5pm. Worth taking if the schedule allows, not worth an extra connection. The 2pm–5pm window is the busiest, with 234 flights scheduled in it.

16 of 57 late departures made up the time and arrived on time, 28% of them. In the other direction, 36 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at MYR.

Delay causes

Why Republic runs late on this route

National Airspace System accounts for 42% of the 4,785 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.

  • National Airspace System
    42%
  • Late-arriving aircraft
    27%
  • Carrier
    21%
  • Extreme weather
    9%

42% of delay minutes are charged to the National Airspace System: air traffic volume, runway configuration, ground stops. No carrier can price its way out of that, which is why airport choice moves the number here more than carrier choice does. That is 2,033 minutes out of 4,785, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 4,785 reported delay minutes.

Cancellations run at 4.24%, against 1.89% nationally. That is about one flight in 25 cancelled outright. A cancelled flight is invisible in every on-time figure on this page, so the punctuality numbers above describe only the flights that actually operated.

Connections and stage length

What a delay here costs

5.8% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so 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 550 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 runs 80.1% on time across 472 flights, within 3 points of this direction. The two legs are scored separately because they usually differ; on this city pair they happen not to.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 472 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 Republic on EWR to MYR

Put together: the delay figures matter less here than the 4.24% cancellation rate. A late arrival costs you about an hour; a cancelled flight costs you the day. Book the 8am–11am departure so there is still a schedule behind you if it goes wrong, and treat a same-day connection as optimistic. 452 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
