Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s UA 2113, check with United Airlines.

UA 2113 lands a B+, level with the national rate of 77.6%. Roughly one flight in four arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by a little over an hour on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 349 flights, with a median arrival 3 minutes early.

These figures cover 349 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 3 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 2113 flies

UA 2113 flies LAX to ORD without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:52, used on 72 of 349 flights, with 10:45 (62 flights) and 10:15 (51 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 10:52 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and UA 2113 runs 7 points worse at 77.0%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Against the route

UA 2113 next to LAX to ORD

Across the year

UA 2113 quarter by quarter

UA 2113 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 82.0% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 71.1%, a swing of 11 points on roughly 87 flights a quarter. The twelve-month rate averages over that, so if you are flying in a weak quarter the quarter's own figure is the better guide.

By weekday, UA 2113 did best on Tuesday at 88.0% on time and worst on Saturday at 57.1%. Each day rests on about 50 flights, so a gap of 31 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why UA 2113 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 45% of the 5,599 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.

  • Late-arriving aircraft
    45%
  • National Airspace System
    32%
  • Carrier
    23%

45% 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 5,599 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 45 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 5,599 delay minutes reported on UA 2113.

Cancellations are rare at 0.86%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

6.7% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last a little over an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.

At 1,744 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.

The same number turns up on six other city pairs in the data, including MCO to LAX (161), ORD to BWI (56) and ORD to FSD (46), but none flew often enough under UA 2113 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to LAX to ORD only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 349 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 2113

For a booking, read UA 2113 as 77.0% on time with 0.86% cancelled over 349 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
