Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s flights, check with Envoy Air.

Envoy on MIA to BWI earns an A+. Close to nine flights in ten arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 13 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs roughly 50 minutes. That rests on 114 flights. The strongest carrier on the route with a full sample, Southwest Airlines, flew 1,180 at 75.1% on time.

Set against the rest of the country, Envoy's MIA to BWI record is 13 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 128 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

Every carrier on MIA to BWI, 2,284 flights

These figures cover 114 flights between July 2025 and June 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.

Carrier by carrier

Envoy against every carrier on MIA to BWI

Envoy flew 114 of the 2,284 flights on MIA to BWI, about 5% of it. Its 90.4% on time is 17 points better than the route as a whole, which runs 73.6%. Ranked by on-time rate it is first of five carriers on the route, where the range runs from Envoy at 90.4% to Spirit at 52.9%. Two of those carriers flew fewer than 365 flights here, so treat their positions as rough.

The two carriers here are closely matched: 6 points separate the best from the worst. At that spread, schedule and price are better tie-breakers than reliability. Sample sizes are shown so you can see which rows are worth weighing.

No carrier stands out. Southwest tops the table at 75.1%, 6 points clear of the bottom, which is inside the range this kind of sample moves year to year.

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 114 flights.

There are not enough flights in each departure window to split Envoy's MIA to BWI record by time of day without the percentages moving on noise. The headline rate of 90.4% is the reliable figure here.

Across the year

Envoy on MIA to BWI through the year

  • Oct–Dec 202563 flights87.3%
  • Jan–Mar 20261 flights
  • Apr–Jun 202650 flights96.0%

Scale runs 80% to 100%. 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 90.4% on time across 114 flights.

Split by quarter, Envoy on MIA to BWI logged 63 flights in Oct–Dec 2025, 1 flights in Jan–Mar 2026 and 50 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 90.4% annual figure is the one to use.

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 533 reported delay minutes.

  • Carrier
    39%
  • Late-arriving aircraft
    38%
  • National Airspace System
    19%
  • Extreme weather
    4%

38% 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 533 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 11 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 533 reported delay minutes.

The largest share of delay minutes, 39%, 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 210 of the 533 delay minutes reported here.

Cancellations are rare at 0.00%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Almost no flights are 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 1.8% 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 946 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 81.6% on time across 114 flights, 9 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 9 points of difference.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 114 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 MIA to BWI

Put together: treat all of this as provisional. 114 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 90.4% headline is the most reliable number on the page; the hour and month splits below it are built on a few dozen flights each. 114 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
