- 86%Carrier
- 11%Late-arriving aircraft
- 2%National Airspace System

The largest share of delay minutes, 86%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. It accounts for 16,000 of the 18,000 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 18,352 delay minutes reported on AA 2774.

Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
8.7% 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 about 5.3 hours, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 1,431 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 one other city pair in the data, including DFW to LAX (12), but none flew often enough under AA 2774 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to AUS to PHL only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 352 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 2774
For a booking, read AA 2774 as 83.2% on time with 1.70% cancelled over 352 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
