Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s AA 2337, check with American Airlines.
AA 2337 draws a D−. Roughly one flight in three arrives at least 15 minutes late, and the typical late arrival is about an hour behind schedule. Build slack into anything you connect to. That rests on 309 flights, with a median arrival 5 minutes late.
The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so AA 2337 runs 17 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 169 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 309 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 10.4% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.
Schedule
When AA 2337 flies
AA 2337 flies DFW to CMH without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 15:27, used on 40 of 309 flights, with 15:02 (33 flights) and 15:30 (32 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

- Departs 15:0233 flights10.7%
- Departs 15:3032 flights10.4%

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 15:27 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and AA 2337 runs 12 points worse at 60.7%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
AA 2337 quarter by quarter
Quarter by quarter AA 2337 held fairly steady: 57.3% in Jul–Sep 2025, 63.9% in Oct–Dec 2025, 62.2% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 59.1% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 7 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.
- Jul–Sep 202592 flights57.3%
- Oct–Dec 202585 flights63.9%
- Jan–Mar 202686 flights62.2%
- Apr–Jun 202646 flights59.1%
Scale runs 50% to 70%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, AA 2337 did best on Tuesday at 66.7% on time and worst on Sunday at 46.5%. Each day rests on about 44 flights, so a gap of 20 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why AA 2337 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 59% of the 6,791 delay minutes carriers reported, and the remaining four split what is left. The split is by minutes rather than by flights, so a few very long delays count for as much as many short ones.
- 59%Late-arriving aircraft
- 26%Carrier
- 11%National Airspace System
- 4%Extreme weather
59% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. That is a cascade, and cascades start small and grow through the day. Across 6,791 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 17 to one. It is the strongest argument for booking the first departure of the morning, when the aircraft has been sitting at the gate overnight with nothing to inherit. The split is drawn from 6,791 delay minutes reported on AA 2337.
Cancellations run at 3.24%, against 1.81% 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
For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 10.4% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
The 926 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. It is also long enough that the aircraft usually flies three or four legs a day rather than six, which slows how fast delay compounds.
The same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including CMH to DFW (171), but none flew often enough under AA 2337 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to DFW to CMH only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 309 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 2337
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on AA 2337: 3.24% of its 309 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs about an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
