Lexington to Denver

What the Data Says About LEX to DEN

The Lexington to Denver corridor (LEX → DEN) covers roughly 1,086 miles and is served by 1 carrier, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 766 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 83.2% on-time rate with an average delay of 66.7 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 735 flights were recorded on this pairing — 3 cancelled (0.4%) and 0 diverted (0.0%). 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 766 total flights analyzed, the 83.2% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 66.7-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).

For travelers evaluating the LEX to DEN route, the combination of a 83.2% on-time rate, 66.7-minute average delay, 0.4% recent cancellation rate, and 1 available carrier is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
