Other routes AA2864 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 AA2864 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.
Why AA2864 runs late
Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.
the inbound aircraft was late, so this flight started late

airspace and airport capacity, including weather-driven flow control
Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for AA2864 on DFW → LAS. 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 596 records of AA2864 operating DFW → LAS, 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.
