These figures cover 269 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 15 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 2158 flies
DL 2158 flies GSP to ATL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 11:44, used on 52 of 269 flights, with 12:00 (52 flights) and 11:04 (33 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 11:44 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and DL 2158 runs 14 points better at 92.5%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
DL 2158 quarter by quarter
Quarter by quarter DL 2158 held fairly steady: 94.5% in Jul–Sep 2025, 90.9% in Oct–Dec 2025, 91.7% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 92.1% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 4 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.
- Jul–Sep 202591 flights94.5%
- Oct–Dec 202577 flights90.9%
- Jan–Mar 202662 flights91.7%

By weekday, DL 2158 ranged from 90.0% on Monday to 100.0% on Thursday. With about 38 flights behind each day, a spread of 10 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.
Delay causes
Why DL 2158 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 64% of the 1,312 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.
- 64%Late-arriving aircraft
- 23%Carrier
- 12%National Airspace System
- 1%Extreme weather
64% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. That is a cascade, and cascades start small and grow through the day. Across 1,312 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 50 to one. It is the strongest argument for booking the first departure of the morning, when the aircraft has been sitting at the gate overnight with nothing to inherit. The split is drawn from 1,312 delay minutes reported on DL 2158.
Cancellations sit at 1.12% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.4% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
The same number turns up on three other city pairs in the data, including ATL to GSP (206), DTW to IAH (36) and FLL to MSP (31), but none flew often enough under DL 2158 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to GSP to ATL only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 269 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 2158
For a booking, DL 2158 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 92.5% on time and 1.12% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
