Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 2363, check with Delta Air Lines.
DL 2363 earns an A+. Close to nine flights in ten arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 13 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs close to two hours. That rests on 365 flights, with a median arrival 10 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, DL 2363's record is 13 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 133 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 10 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 2363 flies
DL 2363 flies STL to SLC without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 07:00, used on 92 of 365 flights, with 07:15 (42 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.
- Departs 07:0092 flights25.2%
- Departs 07:1542 flights11.5%
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 07:00 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and DL 2363 runs level with that at 90.9%. 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 2363 next to STL to SLC
Every carrier on STL to SLC combined arrived on time 87.5% of the time across 989 flights, so DL 2363 is 3 points ahead of it. Delta flew 978 flights on the same city pair under all its flight numbers, including this one, and those ran 87.6% on time. Across its whole network Delta Air Lines managed 81.6%, which this flight beats by 9 points.

Across the year
DL 2363 quarter by quarter
Quarter by quarter DL 2363 held fairly steady: 92.4% in Jul–Sep 2025, 85.7% in Oct–Dec 2025, 91.0% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 94.5% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 9 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.
- Jul–Sep 202592 flights92.4%
- Oct–Dec 202592 flights85.7%
- Jan–Mar 202690 flights91.0%
- Apr–Jun 202691 flights94.5%
Scale runs 75% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, DL 2363 did best on Friday at 96.2% on time and worst on Saturday at 78.8%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 17 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why DL 2363 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 68% of the 3,723 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.
- 68%Carrier
- 29%Extreme weather
- 3%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 29% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 4.7 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 3,723 delay minutes reported on DL 2363.
Cancellations are rare at 0.55%, below the national 1.81% 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
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.3% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
The 1,156 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 365 flights under DL 2363 in the data flew STL to SLC. 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. 365 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 2363
For a booking, DL 2363 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 90.9% on time and 0.55% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
