Newark to Hilton Head

What the Data Says About EWR to HHH

The Newark to Hilton Head corridor (EWR → HHH) covers roughly 687 miles and is served by 1 carrier, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 671 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 85.8% on-time rate with an average delay of 66.7 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 671 flights were recorded on this pairing — 20 cancelled (3.0%) and 5 diverted (0.7%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 1 carrier on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 671 total flights analyzed, the 85.8% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 66.7-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 EWR to HHH route, the combination of a 85.8% on-time rate, 66.7-minute average delay, 3.0% recent cancellation rate, and 1 available carrier is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
