Dallas/Fort Worth to Greensboro/High Point

What the Data Says About DFW to GSO

The Dallas/Fort Worth to Greensboro/High Point corridor (DFW → GSO) covers roughly 999 miles and is served by 15 carriers, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 5,001 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 72.4% on-time rate with an average delay of 71.3 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 1,868 flights were recorded on this pairing — 51 cancelled (2.7%) and 5 diverted (0.3%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 15 carriers on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 5,001 total flights analyzed, the 72.4% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 71.3-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, Feb 2025 posted the best performance on this corridor at 82% on-time, while Mar 2025 came in at 39% on-time — a 43-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the DFW to GSO route, the combination of a 72.4% on-time rate, 71.3-minute average delay, 2.7% recent cancellation rate, and 15 available carriers is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
