Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s UA 295, check with United Airlines.

UA 295 lands a B+, 3 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 roughly 40 minutes on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 365 flights, with a median arrival 4 minutes early.

These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 4 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 295 flies

UA 295 is scheduled to leave Denver (DEN) at 11:15 local time and reach Spokane (GEG) at 12:45. That slot held for 303 of the 365 scheduled departures in the data, so the figures below describe one steady operation rather than a number that moved around the clock.

Scale runs 0% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.

A 11:15 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and UA 295 runs level with that at 80.5%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Against the route

UA 295 next to DEN to GEG

Across its whole network United Airlines managed 79.0%, which this flight beats by 2 points.

Across the year

UA 295 quarter by quarter

Quarter by quarter UA 295 held fairly steady: 78.3% in Jul–Sep 2025, 79.1% in Oct–Dec 2025, 77.8% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 86.8% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 9 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.

Jul–Sep 202592 flights78.3%
Oct–Dec 202592 flights79.1%
Jan–Mar 202690 flights77.8%
Apr–Jun 202691 flights86.8%

Scale runs 70% to 90%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, UA 295 did best on Tuesday at 90.6% on time and worst on Thursday at 73.1%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 18 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why UA 295 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 3,013 reported delay minutes.

Carrier
40%
Late-arriving aircraft
33%
National Airspace System
24%
Extreme weather
3%

The largest share of delay minutes, 40%, 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 1,216 of the 3,013 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 3,013 delay minutes reported on UA 295.

Cancellations are rare at 0.00%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Almost no flights are called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.6% 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 836 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 seven other city pairs in the data, including TPA to DEN (45), RDU to DEN (42) and MSY to DEN (36), but none flew often enough under UA 295 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to DEN to GEG only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 365 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 295
