Denver to Medford

What the Data Says About DEN to MFR

The Denver to Medford corridor (DEN → MFR) covers roughly 964 miles and is served by 4 carriers, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 4,633 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 76.1% on-time rate with an average delay of 67.3 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 1,463 flights were recorded on this pairing — 5 cancelled (0.3%) and 8 diverted (0.5%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 4 carriers on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 4,633 total flights analyzed, the 76.1% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 67.3-minute average delay applies only to flights that actually ran late, so it is not the average wait across all departures — the majority of flights on this route depart on time under the BTS definition of a delay (15+ minutes past schedule).

Looking at recent months, Nov 2025 posted the best performance on this corridor at 93% on-time, while Jun 2024 came in at 47% on-time — a 47-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the DEN to MFR route, the combination of a 76.1% on-time rate, 67.3-minute average delay, 0.3% recent cancellation rate, and 4 available carriers is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
