What the Data Says About PUB to DEN

The Pueblo to Denver corridor (PUB → DEN) covers roughly 109 miles and is served by 1 carrier, based on Bureau of Transportation Statistics reporting. Across 1,707 flights in the dataset, this route posts a 88.3% on-time rate with an average delay of 109.5 minutes when flights run late. Over the most recent 24 months of BTS data, 1,122 flights were recorded on this pairing — 33 cancelled (2.9%) and 1 diverted (0.1%). 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 1,707 total flights analyzed, the 88.3% on-time figure is statistically meaningful rather than a small-sample fluke. The 109.5-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, Oct 2021 posted the best performance on this corridor at 98% on-time, while Jun 2022 came in at 75% on-time — a 23-point gap between best and worst recent month. For travelers evaluating the PUB to DEN route, the combination of a 88.3% on-time rate, 109.5-minute average delay, 2.9% recent cancellation rate, and 1 available carrier is the concrete summary of what BTS data shows about reliability on this pairing.
