Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s AA 2690, check with American Airlines.
AA 2690 lands a B+, 6 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in six arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by an hour and a half on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 302 flights, with a median arrival 10 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, AA 2690's record is 6 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 60 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 302 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 10 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.
Schedule
When AA 2690 flies
AA 2690 flies LAS to LAX without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 07:15, used on 50 of 302 flights, with 07:49 (37 flights) and 09:10 (36 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

- Departs 09:1036 flights11.9%

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 07:15 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and AA 2690 runs 6 points worse at 83.6%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Delay causes
Why AA 2690 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 62% of the 4,492 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.
- 62%Carrier
- 22%Late-arriving aircraft
- 16%National Airspace System
The largest share of delay minutes, 62%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 2,797 of the 4,492 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 4,492 delay minutes reported on AA 2690.
Cancellations sit at 0.99% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
5.0% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last an hour and a half, which a normal layover absorbs.
The same number turns up on two other city pairs in the data, including ORD to MIA (41) and LAS to ORD (1), but none flew often enough under AA 2690 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to LAS to LAX only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 302 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 2690
