What stands out

How this airport compares to others like it, not just to itself.

This airport has stayed remarkably steady year over year, a smaller swing than 97% of 328 comparable airports.

79.7% on time over the most recent 12 months (2025-08 to 2026-07), against 79.8% in the 12 months before (2024-08 to 2025-07), virtually unchanged.

Why flights are cancelled at MYR

Every cancellation carries a reason code filed by the airline that operated the flight. Departures, July 2023 – July 2026.

Extreme weather accounts for 62.0% of cancelled departures from MYR — about 1 in every 71 scheduled departures. That is close to the split across every airport FlyerIntel covers.

Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for departures from MYR. Only delays of 15 minutes or more are attributed.

Of the 8,397 departures from MYR that left 15 or more minutes late and have a known inbound aircraft, 73% followed a flight that landed 15 or more minutes late. The other 27% left late even though the aircraft had come in on time or early. Across the 64 covered airports that share runs from 47% to 73%, with a median of 62%; MYR’s is the highest.

The late flight is the one the same aircraft flew into MYR just before, found from the tail number in the DOT file. Airlines and hours differ from one airport to the next, so this describes the departures from MYR and does not rate the airport.

An airport is only partly the author of its own delays. Late-arriving aircraft describes the national schedule arriving here more than anything about this airfield. Air traffic control covers airspace and airport capacity, which is where a congested airport shows up; only the airline category sits squarely inside the carriers’ own operation. How differently they run it is further down this page.

What weather costs at MYR

Departures from MYR by the weather at the airport in the hour they were scheduled to leave, July 2023 – July 2026.

6.4% of scheduled departures from MYR left in an hour of bad weather. 4.1% of them were cancelled, against 2.0% in normal conditions, and 73.4% of the ones that flew arrived on time, against 81.3%. Those hours held 11% of all cancelled departures. That is about 61 more cancellations than the normal-conditions rate would give.

Cancellations were highest in LIFR hours: 5.8% of 675 departures, 2.9 times the normal rate.

Airlines filed 62% of MYR’s coded cancellations under extreme weather. By the weather at the airport in the scheduled hour, 11% of cancelled departures were in bad-weather hours. A code is the airline’s stated reason and an hour’s weather is what the airport reported, so the two need not match.

A departure is counted in every row its hour fits, so the rows overlap and do not add up. Left on time is a departure under 15 minutes late, and arrived on time an arrival under 15 minutes late; cancelled is the share of scheduled departures. Rows with fewer than 120 departures are not scored. Too few departures to score: snow or ice (11).

This is the weather reported at MYR in the hour a flight was scheduled to leave. It leaves out the weather at the destination and on the way, weather that arrived after the scheduled time, and anything else that goes wrong in a bad hour. An hour takes the worst conditions any report in it gave. Weather was matched to 99.7% of the airport’s scheduled departures; the rest left in hours with no report, or at a scheduled time the flight records cannot place exactly. Bad-weather hours are compared with normal hours at the same airport, not with what the same flights would have done in a clear sky: they also fall more often in some seasons and at some times of day.

Turning aircraft around at MYR

Time on the ground between one flight and the next of the same aircraft at MYR, and what a late arrival does to the next departure, July 2023 – July 2026.

The median turn at MYR is scheduled for 50 minutes on the ground and takes 50 minutes, against 56 minutes and 63 minutes across all airports. Aircraft are given less time on the ground here than at the typical airport. The typical turn here finishes on its schedule, where across all airports it runs 7 minutes over.

When the aircraft landed 15 or more minutes late (7,312 turns here, 62 minutes late on average), 69% of the turns were finished in no more than the scheduled ground time, against 68% across all airports. 82% of those flights left 15 or more minutes late, against 72%. After an aircraft that landed on time, 7% did (all airports 11%).

Given the turn lengths scheduled here, the network’s rates would give 59% finished in the schedule and 83% leaving late. MYR finishes more late turns in the schedule than the network would, but lateness is passed on about as often. 54% of its late-inbound turns had a scheduled turn of 45 to 59 minutes, against 31% across all airports.

37,391 turns, July 2023 – July 2026

Aircraft turns at MYR against all airports: scheduled and actual time on the ground and what a late inbound aircraft does
Measure	MYR	All airports	All airports, same turn lengths
Median scheduled turn	50 min	56 min	—
Median actual turn	50 min	63 min	—
Turns that began with an aircraft 15+ minutes late	20%	19%	—

Late inbound that left 15+ minutes late	82%	72%	83%

The last column is the network’s rate at the turn lengths scheduled at MYR, band by band from under 30 minutes to 3 to 6 hours. A turn finishes within the schedule when the aircraft spent no more time on the ground than the schedule gave it.

A turn pairs an aircraft’s landing at MYR with its next departure from it by tail number; the aircraft is never named. These 37,391 turns are 82% of the flights that left MYR in the period; the rest are an aircraft’s first flight after a long stay, flights without a usable inbound, and cancelled flights. Ground time runs from the gate. Turns under 30 minutes are kept, but most leave late even after an on-time landing. Airlines set their own turn schedules, so this describes the airlines that fly at MYR and does not rate the airport.

"Elsewhere" is every other covered airport together, taken from the same aggregates as this page with MYR’s own flights removed (for airlines, that airline’s flights from all its other airports). Hours, months and airlines appear only where both sides have at least 120 completed flights (airlines 500) and the gap is at least 2 points and 2 standard errors; only the largest gap in each direction is shown. The taxi figure is weighted by departures and has no error estimate, so it appears from 2 minutes.
