These figures cover 362 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 14.2% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.
Schedule
When AA 413 flies
AA 413 flies SAT to DFW without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 13:40, used on 54 of 362 flights, with 13:32 (44 flights) and 14:15 (39 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 13:40 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and AA 413 runs 12 points worse at 67.1%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
AA 413 quarter by quarter
AA 413 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 77.5% on time and its weakest Apr–Jun 2026 at 60.4%, a swing of 17 points on roughly 91 flights a quarter. The twelve-month rate averages over that, so if you are flying in a weak quarter the quarter's own figure is the better guide.

- Jan–Mar 202689 flights69.4%

By weekday, AA 413 did best on Thursday at 80.8% on time and worst on Monday at 58.0%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 23 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why AA 413 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 59% of the 9,839 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.
- 59%Late-arriving aircraft
- 18%Carrier
- 16%Extreme weather
- 7%National Airspace System
- 0%Security
Extreme weather accounts for 16% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 2.6 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 9,839 delay minutes reported on AA 413.
Cancellations sit at 2.49% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 14.2% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
The same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including DFW to SAT (199), but none flew often enough under AA 413 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to SAT to DFW only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 362 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 413
For a booking, AA 413 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 14.2% of its completed flights arrived an hour or more late, which a short layover will not absorb. If the onward flight is on a separate ticket, the risk sits with you.
