San Juan (SJU) to Denver (DEN) · scheduled 1:40 PM – 6:05 PM
How UA1368 performs
916 operations, October 2023 – July 2026.
UA1368’s scheduled departure has moved during the period FlyerIntel has on file: it typically left around 2:30 PM earlier on, and around 1:45 PM more recently — a 45-minute shift, not the few minutes of day-to-day rounding every published schedule carries. Confirm the current departure time before booking around an older listing.

Why UA1368 runs late
Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.
airspace and airport capacity, including weather-driven flow control
the inbound aircraft was late, so this flight started late
crew, maintenance, boarding and fueling, all within the carrier’s control
weather severe enough to stop this flight specifically
Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for UA1368 on SJU → DEN. Only delays of 15 minutes or more are attributed.

Does a late aircraft delay this flight?
How often the plane that flies UA1368 comes in late, and what that does to the departure.
The aircraft flying UA1368 came in 15 or more minutes late on 13% of the departures where its previous flight is known. There are not enough departures in both groups to say how the flight left after a late one and after an on-time one.
Each departure is matched to the flight the same aircraft flew into SJU just before it, using the tail number in the DOT file, 901 of 910 departures in all. A departure is left out when that flight is unknown, was cancelled or diverted, or the aircraft had sat for more than 12 hours. A flight the airline cancelled never left and is not in the count, and one flown by a substitute aircraft is matched to the aircraft that flew it, not to the one first planned.
Against the network at the same turn length
| Share of departures | Inbound landed 15+ late |
|---|---|
| UA1368 | 13% |
| Network, same turn | 17% |
The schedule leaves a normal turn: enough time to clean and board if the aircraft is on time, little to spare if it is not.
The network row is every flight with a scheduled turn of 60 to 89 minutes. How often UA1368’s aircraft landed 15 or more minutes late is lower than the network’s. There are not enough departures in both groups to compare how it left.

From pushback to gate
When it leaves SJU late, does that still matter by the time it reaches DEN?
On arrival at DEN, UA1368 spends 11.2 min taxiing from touchdown to the gate — ground time a connecting passenger sits through before they can even leave the aircraft, on top of however late the flight itself ran. That is 1.4 minutes longer than a typical DEN arrival (9.8 min).
Departure delay is averaged over every pushback and arrival delay over every completed arrival, so the two counts differ by the flights that never reached DEN. Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block rather than on top of it; the comparison is 8,304 departures from SJU scheduled in the clock hour UA1368 most often leaves in. Taxi-in is landing to gate, compared against every arrival FlyerIntel has on file at DEN (963,027 flights), not just UA1368’s own. More on taxi time.

The hour it leaves SJU
Part of any flight’s record belongs to the clock rather than to the flight. UA1368 has one departure time, so this is what that time is worth.
On-time arrival rate. 8,304 departures from SJU are scheduled in the 1 PM–2 PM hour over the period, against 109,598 across the whole day.
UA1368 is scheduled out of SJU at 1:40 PM, in the 1 PM–2 PM bank. Departures from SJU in that hour arrive on time 75.7% of the time against 76.2% across the airport’s whole day, so the hour UA1368 leaves in is an ordinary one for SJU and explains nothing about its record either way.
The two airport figures cover every departure from SJU to every destination, so they describe the slot rather than this journey — the like-for-like comparison against the route is above. Hours are scheduled local, and a number whose schedule moved between banks inside the period has no single hour and is not described here at all. Why the hour matters.

By day of week
Does UA1368 run worse on particular days?
Friday is historically the most reliable day and Monday the least, a gap of 7.4 percentage points.

Other routes UA1368 has flown
A flight number is a slot in a schedule, and carriers reassign it. These are the other city pairs this number served in the analysis period.
| Route | Operated | Flights | On time |
|---|---|---|---|
| DEN→LAX Denver to Los Angeles | July 1, 2023 – March 28, 2026 | 976 | 68.2% |
Because the same number has served different journeys, the statistics above describe only the route UA1368 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.

Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 916 records of UA1368 operating SJU → DEN, published by the US DOT Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A flight counts as delayed when it arrives 15 or more minutes after schedule. Cancelled and diverted flights are excluded from the on-time rate and reported separately. Flight numbers are resolved as carrier plus number plus route, because the same number serves different routes over time.
