Historical statistics for September 2025 to August 2026, not live status. For today’s flights, check with Republic Airways.

Republic on MYR to EWR lands a B−, 3 points better than the national rate of 77.3%. About one flight in five arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by a little over an hour on average. That rests on 472 flights, with a median arrival 10 minutes early.

The US average over the same twelve months is 77.3%, so there is little to separate Republic on MYR to EWR from the country as a whole. The variation that matters here is internal: which carrier, and what time of day.

Every carrier on MYR to EWR, 916 flights

These figures cover 472 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 10 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

Republic against every carrier on MYR to EWR

Republic flew 472 of the 916 flights on MYR to EWR, most of the route. Its 80.1% on time is about level with the route as a whole at 80.4%. Ranked by on-time rate it is last of three carriers on the route, where the range runs from Spirit at 80.8% to Republic at 80.1%. 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 Republic runs best on this route

Departure time matters more here than the choice of carrier. The gap between the best and worst window is 14 points, against half a point between the best and worst carrier.

11am–2pm225 flights86.4%
2pm–5pm1 flights—

Scale runs 65% to 90%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

The best window here is not the first bank but the 11am–2pm slot at 86.4% on time, ahead of 5pm–8pm at 72.7%. Where the curve peaks mid-day rather than at dawn, the constraint is usually congestion at one end rather than the aircraft's own rotation. The 5pm–8pm window is the busiest, with 234 flights scheduled in it.

Delay causes

Why Republic runs late on this route

National Airspace System accounts for 52% of the 6,294 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.

Late-arriving aircraft
32%
Carrier

3%

52% 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 3,283 minutes out of 6,294, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 6,294 reported delay minutes.

Cancellations run at 5.93%, against 1.89% nationally. That is roughly one flight in fifteen 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

6.6% 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 a little over 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 83.0% 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 MYR to EWR

Put together: the delay figures matter less here than the 5.93% cancellation rate. A late arrival costs you a little over an hour; a cancelled flight costs you the day. Book the 11am–2pm departure so there is still a schedule behind you if it goes wrong, and treat a same-day connection as optimistic. 442 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
