These figures cover 282 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 692 flies
AA 692 flies HNL to PHX without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 20:59, used on 71 of 282 flights, with 21:00 (44 flights) and 21:42 (33 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 20:59 departure sits in the 8pm–5am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 70.5%, and AA 692 runs 20 points better at 90.0%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Across the year
AA 692 quarter by quarter
AA 692 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 93.5% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 82.7%, a swing of 11 points on roughly 71 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.

- Oct–Dec 202546 flights84.8%
- Jan–Mar 202653 flights82.7%
- Apr–Jun 202691 flights93.3%
Scale runs 75% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, AA 692 did best on Thursday at 95.1% on time and worst on Saturday at 82.9%. 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 692 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 55% of the 5,955 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.
- 55%Carrier
- 24%Late-arriving aircraft
- 17%Extreme weather
- 3%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 17% 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 2.8 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 5,955 delay minutes reported on AA 692.
Cancellations are rare at 0.71%, 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 3.6% 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 2,917 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 282 flights under AA 692 in the data flew HNL to PHX. 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. 282 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 692
For a booking, AA 692 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 90.0% on time and 0.71% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
