Delta achieved an on-time arrival rate of 84.72% for over 1.6 million flights in the past year, marking its third consecutive year leading the region in punctuality. An on-time flight is classified by Cirium as one that arrives within 15 minutes of the scheduled gate arrival time.

Spring break travel plans disrupted by flight cancellations and delays at major airports.

Hundreds of Sun Country passengers were left stranded at MSP due to flight cancellations and delays caused by heavy snow removal and ramp conditions. One flight to Costa Rica was delayed due to an inexperienced ground crew loading the wrong luggage, causing the crew to exceed their duty time. Sun Country apologized for the disruption and is rescheduling the flight for Monday. Passengers expressed frustration and concern about lost money, but some made alternative plans for the night. MSP reported over 300 delays and 180 cancellations on Saturday due to the recent snowfall.
