Share of 299 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
20 of 120 late departures made up the time and arrived on time, 17% of them. In the other direction, 23 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at MIA.
The worst days
Worst days for DL 2382
The latest arrival of the period was on 20 May 2026, 5 hours 3 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as a late-arriving aircraft. On three of the five worst days the largest share was filed as carrier-caused (crew, maintenance, fuelling, baggage).
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 20 May 2026 | 5 hours 3 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 30 December 2025 | 4 hours 24 minutes | Carrier |
| 15 April 2026 | 4 hours 10 minutes | Carrier |
| 14 October 2025 | 3 hours 34 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 14 May 2026 | 3 hours 32 minutes | Carrier |
Delay causes
Why DL 2382 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 54% of the 9,438 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 54%Late-arriving aircraft
- 30%Carrier
- 17%National Airspace System
54% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 9,438 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 54 to one. The split is drawn from 9,438 delay minutes reported on DL 2382.
Cancellations run at 5.06%, against 1.89% nationally. That is about one flight in twenty 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
20.7% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
The 1,096 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.
Every one of the 316 flights under DL 2382 in the data flew LGA to MIA. 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. 316 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 2382
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on DL 2382: 5.06% of its 316 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.
