Reading Endeavor Air’s record
Cancellation is where Endeavor Air stands out, and not well: it cancelled 2.74% of its flights against a median of 1.4% across the airlines here — 2 times the typical rate. Cancellation is also the outcome that costs a traveller a day rather than an hour, and the one that triggers a refund entitlement where delay does not.
Endeavor Air sits in the top fifth of the 105 airlines measured.
Most of Endeavor Air’s delay was its own doing. Around 72% of the minutes it lost came from crew, maintenance and aircraft arriving late from earlier legs — causes inside the airline — rather than weather or air traffic control. That is the part a change of management can change, and the part that does not improve on its own.
Endeavor Air is not late often, but when it is late it is late by about 81 minutes — long enough to lose a connection. Its on-time percentage reads better than the experience of being on the wrong flight.
Each axis is a percentile against the other US airlines in the same period, not an absolute score. Further out is better than most; nearer the centre is worse than most.
Endeavor Air in five measures
An airline's headline on-time rate hides more than it shows. Two carriers can both arrive on time 75% of the time while one is late by twelve minutes and the other by an hour, or while one is evenly mediocre everywhere and the other is excellent on most routes and dreadful on a few.
These five axes pull those apart. Each is scored against the other US airlines in the same period rather than on an absolute scale, because on-time rates cluster tightly enough that raw numbers would draw every carrier as the same shape.
Same everywhere is the one worth reading twice: it measures how far Endeavor Air’s on-time rate moves from route to route. A carrier scoring low there has an average propped up by routes you may not be flying.
