These figures cover 254 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 5 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.

A 07:25 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and DL 2207 runs 8 points worse at 81.0%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year
DL 2207 quarter by quarter
DL 2207 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 87.8% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 75.3%, a swing of 13 points on roughly 85 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.

- Jan–Mar 202690 flights75.3%
- Apr–Jun 202691 flights87.8%
- Jul–Sep 202662 flights87.1%
Scale runs 65% to 95%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, DL 2207 did best on Friday at 91.7% on time and worst on Wednesday at 69.4%. Each day rests on about 36 flights, so a gap of 22 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Arrival by arrival
How late DL 2207 runs when it is late
DL 2207 often beats the schedule: 69 of 252 completed flights, 27%, arrived 15 minutes or more early. The 48 late arrivals split 21 under half an hour, 13 between 30 and 60 minutes, and 14 an hour or more.

Share of 252 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
Time lost at the gate mostly stays lost. Of 38 departures that left 15 minutes late or more, only 3 made it up before arrival. In the other direction, 13 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at SLC.
The worst days
Worst days for DL 2207
The latest arrival of the period was on 1 March 2026, 7 hours 44 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as a late-arriving aircraft. On four of the five worst days the largest share was filed as carrier-caused (crew, maintenance, fuelling, baggage).
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 1 March 2026 | 7 hours 44 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 14 April 2026 | 7 hours 38 minutes | Carrier |
| 23 March 2026 | 5 hours 42 minutes | Carrier |
| 14 January 2026 | 4 hours 33 minutes | Carrier |
| 16 May 2026 | 2 hours 56 minutes | Carrier |
Delay causes
Why DL 2207 runs late
Carrier accounts for 70% of the 3,645 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 70%Carrier
- 16%National Airspace System
- 13%Late-arriving aircraft
- 1%Extreme weather
The largest share of delay minutes, 70%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. It accounts for 2,550 of the 3,645 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 3,645 delay minutes reported on DL 2207.
Cancellations are rare at 0.79%, below the national 1.89% 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
5.6% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so 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.
At 1,565 miles this is transcontinental flying, and long routes get a quiet structural advantage. Scheduled block time on a flight this length carries more padding in absolute minutes, so a twenty-minute late departure often still becomes an on-time arrival. Read the on-time rate here as slightly flattering next to a short-haul route with the same operational quality.
The same number turns up on two other city pairs in the data, including ATL to GPT (84) and GPT to ATL (84), but none flew often enough under DL 2207 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to CLE to SLC only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 254 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 2207
