How DL597 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for DL597 across the CUN and ATL boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: left a little late (~10 min) but landed about 25 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how DL597 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
