Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 2313, check with Delta Air Lines.

DL 2313 sits in the middle of the pack with a C−. About seven flights in ten arrive on time by the DOT's definition, 5 points worse than the national rate of 77.6%. The late ones land an hour and a half behind schedule. That rests on 341 flights, with a median arrival 8 minutes early.

The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so DL 2313 runs 5 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 49 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 341 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 12.1% 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 2313 flies

DL 2313 flies LGA to MSP without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 18:29, used on 117 of 341 flights, with 18:20 (52 flights) and 18:05 (50 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 18:29 departure sits in the 5pm–8pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 68.2%, and DL 2313 runs 5 points better at 72.7%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Across the year

DL 2313 quarter by quarter

DL 2313 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 77.8% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 66.3%, a swing of 12 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.

Jul–Sep 202592 flights77.8%
Oct–Dec 202591 flights66.3%
Jan–Mar 202690 flights77.1%
Apr–Jun 202668 flights69.1%

Scale runs 60% to 85%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, DL 2313 did best on Saturday at 86.3% on time and worst on Thursday at 60.0%. Each day rests on about 49 flights, so a gap of 26 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why DL 2313 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 8,846 reported delay minutes.

Carrier
41%
Late-arriving aircraft
27%
National Airspace System
24%
Security
8%

The largest share of delay minutes, 41%, 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 3,608 of the 8,846 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 8,846 delay minutes reported on DL 2313.

Cancellations run at 3.23%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about one flight in 30 cancelled outright. A cancelled flight is invisible in every on-time figure on this page, so the punctuality numbers above describe only the flights that actually operated.

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. 12.1% 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.

The 1,020 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 341 flights under DL 2313 in the data flew LGA to MSP. 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. 341 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 2313

For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on DL 2313: 3.23% of its 341 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs an hour and a half, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
