These figures cover 329 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 13 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.

| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 18 July 2026 | 26 hours | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 21 July 2026 | 7 hours 21 minutes | Extreme weather |
| 6 September 2025 | 4 hours 27 minutes | Extreme weather |

Delay causes
Why UA 2200 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 55% of the 4,840 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 55%Late-arriving aircraft
- 16%National Airspace System
- 15%Carrier
- 13%Extreme weather
Extreme weather accounts for 13% 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 2.2 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 4,840 delay minutes reported on UA 2200.
Cancellations sit at 1.52% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.61%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
5.3% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last close to two hours, which a normal layover absorbs.
At 1,620 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 two other city pairs in the data, including DEN to JAC (102) and DEN to DAY (21), but none flew often enough under UA 2200 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to LGA to DEN only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 329 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
