Dallas/Fort Worth to Hayden

What the Data Says About DFW to HDN

The Dallas/Fort Worth to Hayden corridor (DFW → HDN) covers roughly 769 miles and is served by 1 carrier, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 734 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 79.7% on-time rate with an average delay of 74.2 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 734 flights were recorded on this pairing — 6 cancelled (0.8%) and 21 diverted (2.9%). Those baseline metrics tell you what to expect before you book.

Having 1 carrier on the route matters: more carriers generally means more daily schedule options, competitive pricing, and redundancy when flights are cancelled. With 734 total flights analyzed, the 79.7% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 74.2-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, Mar 2024 posted the best performance on this corridor at 83% on-time, while Jan 2024 came in at 74% on-time — a 9-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the DFW to HDN route, the combination of a 79.7% on-time rate, 74.2-minute average delay, 0.8% recent cancellation rate, and 1 available carrier is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
