Why AA1267 runs late
Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.
the inbound aircraft was late, so this flight started late
crew, maintenance, boarding and fueling, all within the carrier’s control
weather severe enough to stop this flight specifically
airspace and airport capacity, including weather-driven flow control

Does a late aircraft delay this flight?
How often the plane that flies AA1267 comes in late, and what that does to the departure.
When the aircraft came in 15 or more minutes late, AA1267 pushed back an average of 45 minutes late; when it came in on time or early, an average of 15 minutes late.
Matched by tail number to the aircraft’s previous flight into DFW: 523 of 593 departures. Unknown, cancelled or diverted inbounds and gaps over 12 hours are left out.
Against the network at the same turn length
| Share of departures | Inbound landed 15+ late | Left 15+ late after a late inbound | Left 15+ late after an on-time inbound |
|---|---|---|---|
| AA1267 | 28% | 65% | 29% |
| Network, same turn | 17% | 69% | 9% |
75 scheduled minutes is enough to clean and board when the aircraft is on time, with little to spare when it is not.
The network row is every flight with a scheduled turn of 60 to 89 minutes. How often AA1267’s aircraft landed 15 or more minutes late is higher than the network’s and, once the aircraft was late, how often AA1267 left 15 or more minutes late is lower than the network’s.

From pushback to gate
When it leaves DFW late, does that still matter by the time it reaches RSW?
AA1267 pushes back an average of 31.3 minutes late and reaches the gate at RSW an average of 26.4 minutes late. The 4.9 minutes between those two figures are slack the published schedule already carries, so a late pushback is partly, not fully, made up before the gate. It spends 18.9 minutes on the taxiways at DFW, 2.1 minutes shorter than a typical DFW departure in the same hour.
On arrival at RSW, AA1267 spends 4.7 min taxiing from touchdown to the gate — ground time a connecting passenger sits through before they can even leave the aircraft, on top of however late the flight itself ran. That is about what any arrival at RSW spends on the ground before reaching the gate.
Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block; the hourly comparison is 74,302 DFW departures. Taxi-in is landing to gate, set against 109,377 arrivals at RSW. More on taxi time.

The hour it leaves DFW
AA1267 has one departure time, 7:16 PM, so this is what that hour at DFW is worth.
On-time arrival rate. 74,302 departures from DFW are scheduled in the 7 PM–8 PM hour over the period, against 989,065 across the whole day.

Both airport figures cover every destination from DFW, so they describe the slot, not this journey; the route comparison is above. Why the hour matters.

When it goes wrong
The average describes a usual day. This is the day that ruins a connection.
92 min late
against a median of 7 min late
AA1267 has an average that understates its risk: a typical arrival is 7 min late, but the worst tenth are 85 minutes worse than that. If the trip has something unmissable at the end of it, the median is the wrong number to plan against.
