Why AA2029 runs late

Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.

Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for AA2029 on ELP → DFW. 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 520 records of AA2029 operating ELPDFW, 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.
