Evansville to Detroit

What the Data Says About EVV to DTW

The Evansville to Detroit corridor (EVV → DTW) covers roughly 363 miles and is served by 3 carriers, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 984 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 93.9% on-time rate with an average delay of 91.8 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 984 flights were recorded on this pairing — 23 cancelled (2.3%) and 0 diverted (0.0%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 3 carriers on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 984 total flights analyzed, the 93.9% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 91.8-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).

Looking at recent months, Oct 2020 posted the best performance on this corridor at 97% on-time, while Jun 2021 came in at 82% on-time — a 15-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the EVV to DTW route, the combination of a 93.9% on-time rate, 91.8-minute average delay, 2.3% recent cancellation rate, and 3 available carriers is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
