Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 1464, check with Delta Air Lines.

DL 1464 earns an A+. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 8 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs a little over an hour. That rests on 365 flights, with a median arrival 9 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, DL 1464's record is 8 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 77 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 9 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 1464 flies

DL 1464 flies SLC to FCA without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 21:30, used on 102 of 365 flights, with 22:45 (64 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Scale runs 0% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

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

A 21:30 departure sits in the 8pm–5am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 70.5%, and DL 1464 runs 15 points better at 85.3%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Against the route

DL 1464 next to SLC to FCA

Every carrier on SLC to FCA combined arrived on time 90.5% of the time across 1,159 flights, so DL 1464 is 5 points behind it. Across its whole network Delta Air Lines managed 81.6%, which this flight beats by 4 points.

Across the year

DL 1464 quarter by quarter

DL 1464 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 92.4% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 75.6%, a swing of 17 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.

Jul–Sep 202592 flights92.4%
Oct–Dec 202592 flights75.6%
Jan–Mar 202690 flights85.4%
Apr–Jun 202691 flights87.8%

Scale runs 65% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, DL 1464 did best on Tuesday at 90.6% on time and worst on Friday at 78.0%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 13 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why DL 1464 runs late

Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 4,318 reported delay minutes.

Extreme weather
38%
Carrier
29%
Late-arriving aircraft
28%
National Airspace System
4%

Extreme weather accounts for 38% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 6.1 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 4,318 delay minutes reported on DL 1464.

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

5.0% 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 a little over an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.

The 532 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.

Every one of the 365 flights under DL 1464 in the data flew SLC to FCA. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.

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.

What to do with this

Booking DL 1464

For a booking, DL 1464 is one of the weaker ways to fly SLC to FCA: 5 points below the route as a whole. If the schedule allows, compare it with the other departures listed on the route page before settling on this one.
