What the record says about this route
The season swings this route hard. In February it ran 35.6 points more punctual than in April — a difference bigger than the one between the best and worst airlines on most routes. If the date is flexible, it is worth more than the carrier.
Which airline you fly changes the odds here. Envoy Air arrived on time 6 points more often than SkyWest Airlines over the same period on the same route — same airports, same weather, same air traffic control. A gap that survives all of that is about how the two airlines are run.
The shape of the lateness matters here. Flights on this route are not late often, but when they are late they are late by about 76 minutes — long enough to lose a connection or an evening. The on-time percentage looks reassuring and understates the consequence of being on the wrong flight.
The Grand Junction to Dallas/Fort Worth route sits close to the middle of the record — neither notably punctual nor notably late.
Which airline should you fly on this route?
Over July 2024 – July 2026, Envoy Air arrived on time most often on GJT to DFW. SkyWest Airlines was late most often. Flights ran closest to schedule in February and worst in June.

What these figures do and do not tell you
Everything on this page is counted from the flights that actually operated on GJT to DFW during July 2024 – July 2026, as reported by the airlines to the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics. "On time" is the federal definition: arriving at the gate within 15 minutes of the scheduled time.
A route's record is a description of the past, not a forecast. Weather, air traffic control and the aircraft's earlier flights that day drive most delays, and none of them are predictable from a historical rate. What the record does tell you is whether this route runs late more often than others, and which carrier on it has the better history — which is the part you can actually act on when you book.
Cancellations are counted separately from delays because they are a different problem for a traveller: a late flight still gets you there. How the grade is calculated →
