Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 1341, check with Delta Air Lines.

DL 1341 sits in the middle of the pack with a C+. About seven flights in ten arrive on time by the DOT's definition, 7 points worse than the national rate of 77.6%. The late ones land roughly 45 minutes behind schedule. That rests on 365 flights, with a median arrival right on schedule.

The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so DL 1341 runs 7 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 67 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. On-time means an arrival less than 15 minutes after the scheduled gate time, the same threshold the Department of Transportation uses in its own reports. Cancelled and diverted flights are excluded from the on-time rate and counted separately, which is why the cancellation column matters on its own.

Schedule

When DL 1341 flies

DL 1341 flies ATL to FLL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 12:30, used on 97 of 365 flights, with 12:15 (62 flights) and 12:20 (60 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 12:30 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and DL 1341 runs 8 points worse at 70.9%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

DL 1341 quarter by quarter

DL 1341 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 78.9% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 66.3%, a swing of 13 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 1341 did best on Thursday at 82.7% on time and worst on Sunday at 59.6%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 23 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why DL 1341 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 51% of the 4,965 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
    51%
  • National Airspace System
    33%
  • Late-arriving aircraft
    14%
  • Extreme weather
    2%

The largest share of delay minutes, 51%, 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 2,553 of the 4,965 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 4,965 delay minutes reported on DL 1341.

Cancellations are rare at 0.55%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

6.4% 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 roughly 45 minutes, which a normal layover absorbs.

The 581 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.

DL 1341 is not only a ATL to FLL flight. It also flew FLL to ATL (303 flights, 71.5% on time) often enough to be scored on its own. Airlines attach one number to several legs of an aircraft's day, and each leg keeps its own record here, so check which city pair is on your booking before reading a rate.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 365 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.
