Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
9.0% 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 334 flights under OH 5495 in the data flew CAK to CLT. 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. 334 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.
