AA 1575 earns an A−. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 8 points better than the national rate of 77.3%.

Set against the rest of the country, AA 1575's record is 8 points better than the US average of 77.3%. That gap is worth roughly 77 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 326 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 16 minutes early, which is the part an average hides: most flights here are fine, and the on-time rate is decided by a tail of badly late ones. On-time means under 15 minutes late, the DOT's own threshold.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 08:00 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 83.9%, and AA 1575 runs level with that at 85.0%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year
AA 1575 quarter by quarter
AA 1575 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 95.6% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 69.8%, a swing of 26 points on roughly 82 flights a quarter. The twelve-month rate averages over that, so if you are flying in a weak quarter the quarter's own figure is the better guide.

- Apr–Jun 202691 flights95.6%

By weekday, AA 1575 ranged from 77.8% on Sunday to 87.0% on Wednesday. With about 47 flights behind each day, a spread of 9 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.
Arrival by arrival
How late AA 1575 runs when it is late
AA 1575 often beats the schedule: 172 of 314 completed flights, 55%, arrived 15 minutes or more early. The 47 late arrivals split 15 under half an hour, 11 between 30 and 60 minutes, and 21 an hour or more.

Share of 314 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
9 of 36 late departures made up the time and arrived on time, 25% of them. In the other direction, 20 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at CLT.
The worst days
Worst days for AA 1575
The latest arrival of the period was on 3 December 2025, 24 hours 55 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as carrier-caused (crew, maintenance, fuelling, baggage). The five worst days are spread across December, October and August, with no single month standing out.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 3 December 2025 | 24 hours 55 minutes | Carrier |
| 7 October 2025 | 8 hours 52 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 28 August 2026 | 6 hours 40 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |

Delay causes
Why AA 1575 runs late
Carrier accounts for 54% of the 5,611 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 54%Carrier
- 19%Late-arriving aircraft
- 18%National Airspace System
- 9%Extreme weather
The largest share of delay minutes, 54%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. It accounts for 3,008 of the 5,611 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 5,611 delay minutes reported on AA 1575.
Cancellations run at 3.37%, against 1.89% nationally. That is about one flight in 30 cancelled outright. A cancelled flight is invisible in every on-time figure on this page, so the punctuality numbers above describe only the flights that actually operated.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
6.7% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last close to two hours, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 529 miles between these two airports put this in the middle of the US network, around two and a half to three hours of block time. That is enough cruise to absorb a ten-minute late pushback and not enough to absorb thirty.
The same number turns up on three other city pairs in the data, including EUG to PHX (1), DFW to MIA (1) and MEM to PHX (1), but none flew often enough under AA 1575 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to EWR to CLT only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 326 flights over twelve months is enough to clear this site's floor but not enough to pin the rate down tightly, and a single bad week moves it by more than a point. Treat the grade as a rough reading.
What to do with this
Booking AA 1575
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on AA 1575: 3.37% of its 326 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs close to two hours, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
