Why F9 2060 runs late

60% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 5,150 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 60 to one. The split is drawn from 5,150 delay minutes reported on F9 2060.

Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
9.7% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
Every one of the 262 flights under F9 2060 in the data flew RDU to PHL. 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. 262 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 F9 2060
