Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 2365, check with Delta Air Lines.

DL 2365 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 an hour and a half on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 337 flights, with a median arrival 11 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, DL 2365's record is 6 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 56 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 337 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 11 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 2365 flies

DL 2365 flies EWR to ATL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 08:00, used on 88 of 337 flights, with 08:05 (88 flights) and 08:30 (76 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 08:00 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and DL 2365 runs level with that at 83.2%. 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 2365 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 2365 is 6 points ahead of it. Delta flew 3,055 flights on the same city pair under all its flight numbers, including this one, and those ran 80.1% on time. Across its whole network Delta Air Lines managed 81.6%, which this flight beats by 2 points.

Across the year

DL 2365 quarter by quarter

DL 2365 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 89.4% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 73.3%, a swing of 16 points on roughly 84 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 flights81.3%
Oct–Dec 202580 flights73.3%
Jan–Mar 202679 flights88.2%

Scale runs 65% to 95%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, DL 2365 ranged from 81.6% on Sunday to 86.3% on Tuesday. With about 48 flights behind each day, a spread of 5 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.

Delay causes

Why DL 2365 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 54% of the 5,200 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.

54%
Extreme weather
29%
National Airspace System
12%
Late-arriving aircraft
5%

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 4.6 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 5,200 delay minutes reported on DL 2365.

Cancellations run at 2.97%, against 1.81% nationally. That is roughly 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

7.6% 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 an hour and a half, 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.

Every one of the 337 flights under DL 2365 in the data flew EWR to ATL. 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. 337 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 2365

For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on DL 2365: 2.97% of its 337 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.
