DL 1110 lands a B, 3 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in five arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by about an hour on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 274 flights, with a median arrival 4 minutes early.

These figures cover 274 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 4 minutes early, which is the part an average hides: most flights here are fine, and the on-time rate is decided by a tail of badly late ones. On-time means under 15 minutes late, the DOT's own threshold.

Schedule

When DL 1110 flies

DL 1110 flies ATL to RSW without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 14:55, used on 39 of 274 flights, with 14:58 (32 flights) and 13:49 (30 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.

A 14:55 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and DL 1110 runs 8 points better at 80.4%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Against the route

DL 1110 next to ATL to RSW

Every carrier on ATL to RSW combined arrived on time 77.2% of the time across 2,844 flights, so DL 1110 is 3 points ahead of it. Delta flew 2,741 flights on the same city pair under all its flight numbers, including this one, and those ran 77.8% on time. Across its whole network Delta Air Lines managed 81.6%, close to this flight's figure.

Across the year

DL 1110 quarter by quarter

DL 1110 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 87.8% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 75.6%, a swing of 12 points on roughly 91 flights a quarter. The twelve-month rate averages over that, so if you are flying in a weak quarter the quarter's own figure is the better guide.

By weekday, DL 1110 did best on Wednesday at 92.7% on time and worst on Sunday at 68.4%. Each day rests on about 39 flights, so a gap of 24 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why DL 1110 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 60% of the 3,069 delay minutes carriers reported, and the remaining four split what is left. The split is by minutes rather than by flights, so a few very long delays count for as much as many short ones.

Carrier
60%
National Airspace System
20%
Late-arriving aircraft
13%
Extreme weather
6%

The largest share of delay minutes, 60%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 1,856 of the 3,069 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 3,069 delay minutes reported on DL 1110.

Cancellations sit at 1.46% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

7.0% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last about an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.

The 515 miles between these two airports put this in the middle of the US network, around two and a half to three hours of block time. That is enough cruise to absorb a ten-minute late pushback and not enough to absorb thirty. It is also long enough that the aircraft usually flies three or four legs a day rather than six, which slows how fast delay compounds.

The same number turns up on five other city pairs in the data, including RSW to ATL (224), MSN to DTW (24) and ATL to MOB (21), but none flew often enough under DL 1110 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to ATL to RSW only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 274 flights over twelve months is enough to clear this site's floor but not enough to pin the rate down tightly, and a single bad week moves it by more than a point. Treat the grade as a rough reading.

What to do with this

Booking DL 1110

For a booking, read DL 1110 as 80.4% on time with 1.46% cancelled over 274 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
