Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s AA 2858, check with American Airlines.

AA 2858 earns an A+. Close to nine flights in ten arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 11 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs about 2.4 hours. That rests on 316 flights, with a median arrival 8 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, AA 2858's record is 11 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 113 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 316 flights between July 2025 and June 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.

Schedule

When AA 2858 flies

AA 2858 flies JAX to PHX without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 07:01, used on 48 of 316 flights, with 07:25 (44 flights) and 07:50 (36 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.

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 88.9%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year

AA 2858 quarter by quarter

Quarter by quarter AA 2858 held fairly steady: 84.6% in Jul–Sep 2025, 94.4% in Oct–Dec 2025, 86.3% in Jan–Mar 2026 and 88.4% in Apr–Jun 2026. A spread of 10 points is about what a sample of this size moves on its own, so the annual figure is a fair summary.

Jul–Sep 202566 flights84.6%
Oct–Dec 202590 flights94.4%
Jan–Mar 202674 flights86.3%

Scale runs 75% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, AA 2858 ranged from 86.0% on Sunday to 94.7% on Thursday. With about 45 flights behind each day, a spread of 9 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.

Delay causes

Why AA 2858 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 97% of the 5,035 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.

Carrier
97%
National Airspace System
3%

The largest share of delay minutes, 97%, 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 4,893 of the 5,035 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 5,035 delay minutes reported on AA 2858.

Cancellations are rare at 0.63%, below the national 1.81% 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 4.8% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% 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 one other city pair in the data, including 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. 316 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: 88.9% on time and 0.63% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
