Other routes AA2187 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.
Because the same number has served different journeys, the statistics above describe only the route AA2187 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.
When it goes wrong
The average describes a usual day. This is the day that ruins a connection.
19 min late
against a median of 12 min early
Percentiles over 375 operations. Cancelled and diverted flights have no arrival time and are counted separately rather than as very late arrivals.
Why AA2187 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 AA2187 on MIA → 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 375 records of AA2187 operating MIA → 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.
