Why UA2674 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, fuelling — within the carrier’s control
Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for UA2674 on LGA → IAH. A single late flight can carry more than one cause, and only delays of fifteen minutes or more are attributed at all.
Other departures on LGA → IAH
Same airports, same journey — and not the same odds of arriving on time.
| Flight | Airline | On time | Median arrival | Operations |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DL2099 | Delta Air Lines | 78.4% | 12 min early | 692 |
| DL2109 | Delta Air Lines | 63.7% | 4 min early | 653 |
Every departure listed carries at least 600 operations, so the comparison is between figures that mean something. Schedules change; confirm the departure still operates before booking around this.
Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 116 records of UA2674 operating LGA → IAH, 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.
