|---|---|---|
| 26 October 2025 | 11 hours 26 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 2 August 2026 | 6 hours 30 minutes | Carrier |
| 4 September 2025 | 5 hours 56 minutes | Carrier |

Delay causes
Why UA 676 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 50% of the 7,469 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 50%Late-arriving aircraft
- 30%Carrier
- 19%National Airspace System
50% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 7,469 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 50 to one. The split is drawn from 7,469 delay minutes reported on UA 676.
Cancellations run at 3.99%, against 1.89% nationally. That is about one flight in 25 cancelled outright. A cancelled flight is invisible in every on-time figure on this page, so the punctuality numbers above describe only the flights that actually operated.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
16.0% 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.
At 1,504 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.
The same number turns up on eight other city pairs in the data, including BOS to EWR (35), DEN to CLT (31) and ORD to EWR (19), but none flew often enough under UA 676 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to EWR to AUS only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 301 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 UA 676
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on UA 676: 3.99% of its 301 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs an hour and a half, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
