Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s DL 3089, check with Delta Air Lines.

DL 3089 earns an A. Nearly every flight arrives inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 16 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 345 flights, with a median arrival 14 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, DL 3089's record is 16 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 159 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 345 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 14 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 3089 flies

DL 3089 flies GSP to ATL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 07:30, used on 37 of 345 flights, with 10:13 (36 flights) and 10:06 (35 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 07:30 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and DL 3089 runs 4 points better at 93.5%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year

DL 3089 quarter by quarter

Quarter by quarter DL 3089 held fairly steady: 96.7% in Jul–Sep 2025, 91.1% in Oct–Dec 2025, 92.4% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 93.4% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 6 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.

Jul–Sep 202592 flights96.7%
Oct–Dec 202580 flights91.1%
Jan–Mar 202682 flights92.4%
Apr–Jun 202691 flights93.4%

Scale runs 85% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, DL 3089 did best on Thursday at 98.0% on time and worst on Monday at 84.0%. Each day rests on about 49 flights, so a gap of 14 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why DL 3089 runs late

Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 2,231 reported delay minutes.

Late-arriving aircraft
29%
Extreme weather
28%
Carrier
22%
National Airspace System
20%

Extreme weather accounts for 28% 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 4.5 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 2,231 delay minutes reported on DL 3089.

Cancellations sit at 1.45% 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 2.9% 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 same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including ATL to GSP (177), but none flew often enough under DL 3089 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to GSP to ATL only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 345 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 3089

For a booking, DL 3089 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 93.5% on time and 1.45% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
