Historical statistics for September 2025 to August 2026, not live status. For today’s AA 58, check with American Airlines.

AA 58 lands a B+, 6 points better than the national rate of 77.3%. About one flight in six arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by close to two hours on average. That rests on 281 flights, with a median arrival 14 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, AA 58's record is 6 points better than the US average of 77.3%. That gap is worth roughly 62 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 281 flights between September 2025 and August 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.

A 15:31 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 71.9%, and AA 58 runs 12 points better at 83.5%. 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 56 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.

Scale runs 70% to 95%.

By weekday, AA 58 did best on Wednesday at 91.4% on time and worst on Sunday at 76.7%. Each day rests on about 40 flights, so a gap of 15 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Arrival by arrival

How late AA 58 runs when it is late

AA 58 often beats the schedule: 132 of 279 completed flights, 47%, arrived 15 minutes or more early. Most of the lateness is short. 25 of the 46 late arrivals were under half an hour behind, and 14 reached an hour or more.

Share of 279 completed flights by arrival against schedule.

9 of 39 late departures made up the time and arrived on time, 23% of them. In the other direction, 16 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at LAX.

The worst days

Worst days for AA 58

The latest arrival of the period was on 23 September 2025, 20 hours 17 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as carrier-caused (crew, maintenance, fuelling, baggage). The same cause led on three of the five worst days.

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 4,899 reported delay minutes.

  • Carrier
    37%
  • Late-arriving aircraft
    30%
  • Extreme weather
    22%
  • National Airspace System
    10%

Extreme weather accounts for 22% 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 3.7 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 4,899 delay minutes reported on AA 58.

Cancellations are rare at 0.71%, 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

5.0% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last close to two hours, which a normal layover absorbs.

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 83.5% on time with 0.71% cancelled over 281 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
