These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 8 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 3013 flies

DL 3013 flies ATL to IND without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 11:10, used on 42 of 365 flights. 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 11:10 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and DL 3013 runs 9 points better at 87.5%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

DL 3013 quarter by quarter

Quarter by quarter DL 3013 held fairly steady: 90.1% in Jul–Sep 2025, 85.9% in Oct–Dec 2025, 82.8% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 91.1% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 8 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.

Jul–Sep 202592 flights90.1%
Oct–Dec 202592 flights85.9%
Jan–Mar 202690 flights82.8%
Apr–Jun 202691 flights91.1%

Scale runs 75% to 95%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, DL 3013 did best on Sunday at 92.0% on time and worst on Monday at 78.8%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 13 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why DL 3013 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 65% of the 2,565 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.

Carrier
65%
Late-arriving aircraft
23%
National Airspace System
11%
Extreme weather
1%

The largest share of delay minutes, 65%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 1,655 of the 2,565 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 2,565 delay minutes reported on DL 3013.

Cancellations sit at 1.37% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.6% 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.

DL 3013 is not only a ATL to IND flight. It also flew IND to ATL (365 flights, 87.5% 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. 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.
