These figures cover 279 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 2 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.

Across the year
AA 2629 quarter by quarter
AA 2629 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 75.3% on time and its weakest Apr–Jun 2026 at 63.4%, a swing of 12 points on roughly 70 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.

By weekday, AA 2629 did best on Tuesday at 84.2% on time and worst on Sunday at 59.0%. Each day rests on about 40 flights, so a gap of 25 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Share of 274 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
22 of 84 late departures made up the time and arrived on time, 26% of them. In the other direction, 17 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 AUS.
The worst days
Worst days for AA 2629
The latest arrival of the period was on 5 July 2026, 11 hours 5 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as a late-arriving aircraft. The same cause led on four of the five worst days.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 5 July 2026 | 11 hours 5 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 22 June 2026 | 10 hours 4 minutes | Carrier |
| 4 January 2026 | 5 hours 16 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 3 July 2026 | 5 hours 10 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |

Delay causes
Why AA 2629 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 45% of the 6,110 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 45%Late-arriving aircraft
- 29%Carrier
- 13%National Airspace System
- 12%Extreme weather
Extreme weather accounts for 12% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 2.1 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 6,110 delay minutes reported on AA 2629.
Cancellations sit at 1.79% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
7.7% 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 a little over an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 1,103 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 five other city pairs in the data, including CLT to RDU (44), RDU to CLT (44) and PHX to TPA (30), but none flew often enough under AA 2629 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to MIA to AUS only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 279 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 2629
For a booking, read AA 2629 as 71.2% on time with 1.79% cancelled over 279 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
