F9 2082 earns a D, which is as low as this site's scale goes for a reason. Only 55.5% of flights arrive inside the 15-minute window, 22 points worse than the national rate of 77.6%. Late arrivals average a little over an hour. Treat any tight connection here as a coin flip. That rests on 297 flights, with a median arrival 11 minutes late.

The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so F9 2082 runs 22 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 221 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 297 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 16.6% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.

Schedule

When F9 2082 flies

F9 2082 flies ATL to SJU without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:25, used on 89 of 297 flights, with 10:30 (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 10:25 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and F9 2082 runs 29 points worse at 55.5%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Delay causes

Why F9 2082 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 10,000 reported delay minutes.

Late-arriving aircraft
42%
Carrier
39%
National Airspace System
19%
Extreme weather
0%

42% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. That is a cascade, and cascades start small and grow through the day. Across 10,000 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 42 to one. It is the strongest argument for booking the first departure of the morning, when the aircraft has been sitting at the gate overnight with nothing to inherit. The split is drawn from 10,211 delay minutes reported on F9 2082.

Cancellations sit at 1.35% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 1.01%.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 16.6% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.

At 1,547 miles this is transcontinental flying, and long routes get a quiet structural advantage. Scheduled block time on a flight this length carries more padding in absolute minutes, so a twenty-minute late departure often still becomes an on-time arrival. Read the on-time rate here as slightly flattering next to a short-haul route with the same operational quality.

Every one of the 297 flights under F9 2082 in the data flew ATL to SJU. 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. 297 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 F9 2082

For a booking, F9 2082 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 16.6% of its completed flights arrived an hour or more late, which a short layover will not absorb. If the onward flight is on a separate ticket, the risk sits with you.
