Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s AA 58, check with American Airlines.
AA 58 earns a B+. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 7 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs about 2.3 hours. That rests on 281 flights, with a median arrival 14 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, AA 58's record is 7 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 66 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 281 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 14 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 58 flies
AA 58 flies KOA to LAX without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 15:31, used on 41 of 281 flights, with 15:34 (32 flights) and 15:13 (30 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 15:31 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and AA 58 runs 12 points better at 84.2%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
AA 58 quarter by quarter
AA 58 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 91.5% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 79.2%, a swing of 12 points on roughly 70 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.
- Jul–Sep 202592 flights83.5%
- Oct–Dec 202577 flights79.2%
- Jan–Mar 202665 flights85.9%
- Apr–Jun 202647 flights91.5%
Scale runs 70% to 95%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, AA 58 did best on Monday at 88.4% on time and worst on Friday at 76.2%. Each day rests on about 40 flights, so a gap of 12 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why AA 58 runs late
Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 5,963 reported delay minutes.
- 40%Late-arriving aircraft
- 35%Carrier
- 18%Extreme weather
- 6%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 18% 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 2.9 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 5,963 delay minutes reported on AA 58.
Cancellations are rare at 0.36%, 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 4.3% 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 2,504 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 58 in the data flew KOA to LAX. 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 58
For a booking, read AA 58 as 84.2% on time with 0.36% cancelled over 281 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
