Charlotte to Appleton

What the Data Says About CLT to ATW

The Charlotte to Appleton corridor (CLT → ATW) covers roughly 742 miles and is served by 5 carriers, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 1,340 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 78.1% on-time rate with an average delay of 65.6 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 740 flights were recorded on this pairing — 8 cancelled (1.1%) and 2 diverted (0.3%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 5 carriers on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 1,340 total flights analyzed, the 78.1% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 65.6-minute average delay applies only to flights that actually ran late, so it is not the average wait across all departures — the majority of flights on this route depart on time under the BTS definition of a delay (15+ minutes past schedule).

Monthly performance varies, so review the monthly table above to see specific periods. For travelers evaluating the CLT to ATW route, the combination of a 78.1% on-time rate, 65.6-minute average delay, 1.1% recent cancellation rate, and 5 available carriers is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
