Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 2325, check with Delta Air Lines.
DL 2325 lands a B−, 6 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in six arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by a little over an hour on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 339 flights, with a median arrival 12 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, DL 2325's record is 6 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 61 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 339 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 12 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 2325 flies
DL 2325 flies EWR to ATL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:39, used on 146 of 339 flights, with 10:46 (37 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

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 10:39 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and DL 2325 runs level with that at 83.7%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.
Against the route
DL 2325 next to EWR to ATL
Every carrier on EWR to ATL combined arrived on time 77.6% of the time across 6,290 flights, so DL 2325 is 6 points ahead of it.

Across its whole network Delta Air Lines managed 81.6%, which this flight beats by 2 points.

Across the year
DL 2325 quarter by quarter
DL 2325 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 92.4% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 63.2%, a swing of 29 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.

- Oct–Dec 202588 flights63.2%
- Jan–Mar 202689 flights90.1%

Scale runs 55% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, DL 2325 did best on Wednesday at 93.9% on time and worst on Saturday at 75.8%. Each day rests on about 48 flights, so a gap of 18 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why DL 2325 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 44% of the 4,003 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.
- 44%Late-arriving aircraft
- 32%Carrier
- 23%National Airspace System
- 1%Extreme weather
44% 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 4,003 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 33 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 4,003 delay minutes reported on DL 2325.
Cancellations run at 4.13%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about one flight in 25 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
6.5% 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 a little over an hour, 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 2325 is not only a EWR to ATL flight. It also flew ATL to EWR (305 flights, 82.9% 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. 339 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 2325
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on DL 2325: 4.13% of its 339 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs a little over an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
