| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 13 July 2026 | 6 hours 32 minutes | Carrier |

Delay causes
Why AA 2844 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 57% of the 5,417 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 57%Late-arriving aircraft
- 32%Carrier
- 11%National Airspace System
57% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 5,417 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 57 to one. The split is drawn from 5,417 delay minutes reported on AA 2844.
Cancellations are rare at 0.36%, below the national 1.89% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
9.3% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
At 1,785 miles this is transcontinental flying, and long routes get a quiet structural advantage. Scheduled block time on a flight this length carries more padding in absolute minutes, so a twenty-minute late departure often still becomes an on-time arrival. Read the on-time rate here as slightly flattering next to a short-haul route with the same operational quality.
Every one of the 281 flights under AA 2844 in the data flew PHX to JAX. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 281 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 2844
For a booking, read AA 2844 as 71.3% on time with 0.36% cancelled over 281 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
