These figures cover 361 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. On-time means an arrival less than 15 minutes after the scheduled gate time, the same threshold the Department of Transportation uses in its own reports. Cancelled and diverted flights are excluded from the on-time rate and counted separately, which is why the cancellation column matters on its own.
Schedule
When DL 2322 flies
DL 2322 flies ATL to EWR without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 12:15, used on 95 of 361 flights, with 12:23 (51 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 12:15 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and DL 2322 runs 4 points worse at 74.4%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
DL 2322 quarter by quarter
DL 2322 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 80.2% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 69.7%, a swing of 11 points on roughly 90 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.

- Oct–Dec 202592 flights72.9%
- Jan–Mar 202686 flights74.7%

By weekday, DL 2322 did best on Friday at 80.0% on time and worst on Sunday at 58.3%. 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 2322 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 54% of the 4,661 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.

- 29%Carrier
- 11%Late-arriving aircraft
- 4%Security
- 1%Extreme weather
54% of delay minutes are charged to the National Airspace System: air traffic volume, runway configuration, ground stops. No carrier can price its way out of that, which is why airport choice moves the number here more than carrier choice does. That is 2,517 minutes out of 4,661, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 4,661 delay minutes reported on DL 2322.
Cancellations run at 2.77%, against 1.81% nationally. That is roughly one flight in 40 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
7.5% 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 roughly 50 minutes, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 746 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.
DL 2322 is not only a ATL to EWR flight. It also flew EWR to ATL (335 flights, 72.1% 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. 361 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 2322
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on DL 2322: 2.77% of its 361 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs roughly 50 minutes, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
