Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s UA 2663, check with United Airlines.
UA 2663 lands a B+, 2 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in five arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by about an hour on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 364 flights, with a median arrival 7 minutes early.

These figures cover 364 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 7 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 2663 flies
UA 2663 flies EGE to DEN without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 13:40, used on 63 of 364 flights, with 13:25 (47 flights) and 13:35 (44 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 13:40 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and UA 2663 runs level with that at 79.3%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
UA 2663 quarter by quarter
UA 2663 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 91.2% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 70.8%, a swing of 20 points on roughly 91 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.

- Oct–Dec 202591 flights78.0%
- Jan–Mar 202690 flights70.8%

Scale runs 60% to 95%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, UA 2663 did best on Wednesday at 90.4% on time and worst on Saturday at 73.1%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 17 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why UA 2663 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 4,854 reported delay minutes.
- 41%Late-arriving aircraft
- 30%National Airspace System
- 27%Carrier
- 2%Extreme weather
41% 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 4,854 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 17 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 4,854 delay minutes reported on UA 2663.
Cancellations are rare at 0.27%, 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
5.8% 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 about an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.
The same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including ORD to EGE (8), but none flew often enough under UA 2663 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to EGE to DEN only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 364 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 2663
For a booking, read UA 2663 as 79.3% on time with 0.27% cancelled over 364 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
