These figures cover 304 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 8 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.

A 07:01 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and AA 2858 runs level with that at 88.4%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

| 12 June 2026 | 10 hours 17 minutes | Carrier |

Delay causes
Why AA 2858 runs late
Carrier accounts for 95% of the 2,748 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 95%Carrier
- 5%National Airspace System
The largest share of delay minutes, 95%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. It accounts for 2,608 of the 2,748 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 2,748 delay minutes reported on AA 2858.
Cancellations are rare at 0.66%, 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
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 4.3% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
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.
The same number turns up on two other city pairs in the data, including GRR to ORD (1) and RSW to LGA (1), but none flew often enough under AA 2858 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to JAX to PHX only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 304 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 2858
For a booking, AA 2858 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 88.4% on time and 0.66% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
