Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 2267, check with Delta Air Lines.
DL 2267 earns an F, which is as low as this site's scale goes for a reason. Only 53.2% of flights arrive inside the 15-minute window, 24 points worse than the national rate of 77.6%. Late arrivals average about an hour. Treat any tight connection here as a coin flip. That rests on 364 flights, with a median arrival 11 minutes late.
The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so DL 2267 runs 24 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 244 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 364 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 20.3% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.
Schedule
When DL 2267 flies
DL 2267 flies LAX to SFO without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 13:30, used on 96 of 364 flights, with 13:40 (69 flights) and 13:10 (40 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.
- Departs 13:3096 flights26.4%
- Departs 13:4069 flights19.0%
- Departs 13:1040 flights11.0%
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 13:30 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and DL 2267 runs 26 points worse at 53.2%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
DL 2267 quarter by quarter
DL 2267 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jan–Mar 2026 at 69.8% on time and its weakest Apr–Jun 2026 at 25.6%, a swing of 44 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 2267 did best on Tuesday at 64.2% on time and worst on Sunday at 42.3%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 22 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why DL 2267 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 11,000 reported delay minutes.
- 40%Late-arriving aircraft
- 30%Carrier
- 29%National Airspace System
- 1%Extreme weather
40% 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 11,000 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 37 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 11,056 delay minutes reported on DL 2267.
Cancellations sit at 1.37% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 20.3% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
DL 2267 is not only a LAX to SFO flight. It also flew SFO to LAX (358 flights, 54.3% 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. 364 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 2267
For a booking, DL 2267 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 20.3% of its completed flights arrived an hour or more late, which a short layover will not absorb. If the onward flight is on a separate ticket, the risk sits with you.
