These figures cover 646 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 12 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.

Book the morning departure. Flights leaving between 8am–11am arrive on time 96.9% of the time, against 85.5% for the afternoon window. That is 11 points of difference for no extra money, and it comes from the same aircraft having had no earlier flight to fall behind on.

Delay causes
Why Envoy runs late on this route
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 58% of the 3,601 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 58%Late-arriving aircraft
- 24%Carrier
- 13%National Airspace System
- 4%Extreme weather
- 1%Security
58% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 3,601 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 14 to one. The split is drawn from 3,601 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 96.9% on time here.
Cancellations sit at 1.24% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.46%.
Connections and stage length
What a delay here costs
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.1% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% 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 708 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 is a different operation and performs like one: it runs 80.9% on time across 646 flights, 10 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 10 points of difference.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 646 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 SGF to CLT
Put together: treat all of this as provisional. 646 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 91.2% headline is the most reliable number on the page; the hour and month splits below it are built on a few dozen flights each. 635 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
