Other routes AA1729 has flown
A flight number is a slot in a schedule, and carriers reassign it. These are the other city pairs this number served in the analysis period.
| Route | Operated | Flights | On time |
|---|---|---|---|
| LAX→MIA Los Angeles to Miami | 2025-11-02 – 2026-04-06 | 154 | 74.2% |
| DFW→FAT Dallas–Fort Worth to Fresno | 2023-07-01 – 2024-11-04 | 341 | 80.2% |
| FAT→DFW Fresno to Dallas–Fort Worth | 2023-07-01 – 2024-11-04 | 341 | 80.0% |
Because the same number has served different journeys, the statistics above describe only the route AA1729 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.
Why AA1729 runs late
Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.
crew, maintenance, boarding, fuelling — within the carrier’s control
the inbound aircraft was late, so this flight started late
weather severe enough to stop this flight specifically
airspace and airport capacity, including weather-driven flow control
Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for AA1729 on TUL → CLT. A single late flight can carry more than one cause, and only delays of fifteen minutes or more are attributed at all.
Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 597 records of AA1729 operating TUL → CLT, published by the US DOT Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A flight counts as delayed when it arrives 15 or more minutes after schedule. Cancelled and diverted flights are excluded from the on-time rate and reported separately. Flight numbers are resolved as carrier plus number plus route, because the same number serves different routes over time.
