DL 3030 earns an A. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 9 points better than the national rate of 77.6%.

These figures cover 311 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 3030 flies

DL 3030 flies ATL to GNV without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 11:10, used on 54 of 311 flights, with 11:15 (38 flights) and 11:36 (36 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 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 3030 runs 8 points better at 86.3%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

DL 3030 quarter by quarter

Quarter by quarter DL 3030 held fairly steady: 85.9% in Jul–Sep 2025, 84.8% in Oct–Dec 2025, 89.1% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 86.5% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 4 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.

By weekday, DL 3030 did best on Friday at 93.2% on time and worst on Sunday at 71.4%. Each day rests on about 44 flights, so a gap of 22 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why DL 3030 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 55% of the 2,519 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.

Extreme weather

The largest share of delay minutes, 55%, 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 1,381 of the 2,519 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 2,519 delay minutes reported on DL 3030.

Cancellations sit at 1.61% 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 3.3% 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.

DL 3030 is not only a ATL to GNV flight. It also flew GNV to ATL (311 flights, 86.6% 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. 311 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.
