From pushback to gate
When it leaves SRQ late, does that still matter by the time it reaches CLT?
AA1477 pushes back an average of 3.2 minutes late and reaches the gate at CLT an average of 2.5 minutes early. The 5.7 minutes between those two figures are slack the published schedule already carries, so on average a late pushback on this flight is made up before the gate. Its 14.0 minutes on the taxiways at SRQ is about what any departure from the airport in that hour spends.
On arrival at CLT, AA1477 spends 13.4 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 CLT 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 2,579 SRQ departures. Taxi-in is landing to gate, set against 633,359 arrivals at CLT. More on taxi time.

The hour it leaves SRQ
AA1477 has one departure time, 8:13 AM, so this is what that hour at SRQ is worth.
On-time arrival rate. 2,579 departures from SRQ are scheduled in the 8 AM–9 AM hour over the period, against 52,629 across the whole day.
AA1477 is scheduled out of SRQ at 8:13 AM, in the 8 AM–9 AM bank. Departures from SRQ in that hour arrive on time 93.3% of the time against 80.5% across the airport’s whole day — the slot alone is worth 12.8 points better before anything about this particular flight is considered.
Both airport figures cover every destination from SRQ, so they describe the slot, not this journey; the route comparison is above. Why the hour matters.
