Envoy on SRQ to CLT sits in the middle of the pack with a B. Close to three flights in four arrive on time by the DOT's definition, 2 points worse than the national rate of 77.3%. The late ones land about an hour behind schedule. That rests on 138 flights, with a median arrival 4 minutes early.
The US average over the same twelve months is 77.3%, so there is little to separate Envoy on SRQ to CLT from the country as a whole. The variation that matters here is internal: which carrier, and what time of day.

These figures cover 138 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 4 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 SRQ to CLT
Envoy flew 138 of the 1,345 flights on SRQ to CLT, about 10% of it. Its 75.7% on time is 10 points worse than the route as a whole, which runs 85.6%. Ranked by on-time rate it is last of three carriers on the route, where the range runs from American at 89.2% to Envoy at 75.7%. One 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 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 138 flights.
There are not enough flights in each departure window to split Envoy's SRQ to CLT record by time of day without the percentages moving on noise. The headline rate of 75.7% is the reliable figure here.
Across the year

- Oct–Dec 202541 flights85.0%

- Apr–Jun 202644 flights72.7%
Scale runs 65% to 90%.
Monthly volumes are too low here to break the year into twelve reliable readings. What the twelve-month total says is 75.7% on time across 138 flights.
Envoy on SRQ to CLT did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 85.0% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 71.2%, a swing of 14 points on roughly 46 flights a quarter. The twelve-month rate averages over that, so if you are flying in a weak quarter the quarter's own figure is the better guide.

Share of 136 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
6 of 32 late departures made up the time and arrived on time, 19% of them. In the other direction, 7 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 CLT.
The worst days
Worst days for Envoy on SRQ to CLT
The latest arrival of the period was on 9 November 2025, 4 hours 43 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as carrier-caused (crew, maintenance, fuelling, baggage). On three of the five worst days the largest share was filed as a late-arriving aircraft.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 9 November 2025 | 4 hours 43 minutes | Carrier |
| 20 February 2026 | 3 hours 25 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 23 November 2025 | 3 hours 2 minutes | Carrier |
| 4 March 2026 | 1 hour 37 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 26 December 2025 | 1 hour 35 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
Delay causes
Why Envoy runs late on this route
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 49% of the 1,948 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 49%Late-arriving aircraft
- 32%Carrier
- 19%National Airspace System
49% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 1,948 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 49 to one. The split is drawn from 1,948 reported delay minutes.
Cancellations sit at 1.45% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
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 about an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 547 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 82.4% on time across 138 flights, 7 points above 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 7 points of difference.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 138 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 SRQ to CLT
Put together: treat all of this as provisional. 138 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 75.7% headline is the most reliable number on the page; the hour and month splits below it are built on a few dozen flights each. 136 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
