These figures cover 328 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 10 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 UA 1765 flies
UA 1765 flies PIT to DEN without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 08:30, used on 94 of 328 flights, with 08:18 (49 flights) and 08:15 (45 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 08:30 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and UA 1765 runs 8 points better at 92.0%. 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 UA 1765 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 79% of the 2,213 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.
- 79%Carrier
- 19%National Airspace System
- 1%Extreme weather
The largest share of delay minutes, 79%, 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 1,749 of the 2,213 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 2,213 delay minutes reported on UA 1765.
Cancellations sit at 0.91% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.30%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 1.9% 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 1,290 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. It is also long enough that the aircraft usually flies three or four legs a day rather than six, which slows how fast delay compounds.
The same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including LAS to EWR (37), but none flew often enough under UA 1765 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to PIT to DEN only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 328 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 UA 1765
For a booking, UA 1765 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 92.0% on time and 0.91% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
