Why DL795 runs late
Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.
airspace and airport capacity, including weather-driven flow control
the inbound aircraft was late, so this flight started late
crew, maintenance, boarding and fueling, all within the carrier’s control
weather severe enough to stop this flight specifically
screening or terminal security incidents

Does a late aircraft delay this flight?
How often the plane that flies DL795 comes in late, and what that does to the departure.
The aircraft flying DL795 came in 15 or more minutes late on 13% of the departures where its previous flight is known. There are not enough departures in both groups to say how the flight left after a late one and after an on-time one.
Each departure is matched to the flight the same aircraft flew into LAS just before it, using the tail number in the DOT file, 642 of 646 departures in all. A departure is left out when that flight is unknown, was cancelled or diverted, or the aircraft had sat for more than 12 hours. A flight the airline cancelled never left and is not in the count, and one flown by a substitute aircraft is matched to the aircraft that flew it, not to the one first planned.
Against the network at the same turn length
| Share of departures | Inbound landed 15+ late |
|---|---|
| DL795 | 13% |
| Network, same turn | 17% |
The schedule leaves a normal turn: enough time to clean and board if the aircraft is on time, little to spare if it is not.
The network row is every flight with a scheduled turn of 60 to 89 minutes. How often DL795’s aircraft landed 15 or more minutes late is lower than the network’s. There are not enough departures in both groups to compare how it left.

From pushback to gate
When it leaves LAS late, does that still matter by the time it reaches JFK?
DL795 pushes back an average of 15.5 minutes late and reaches the gate at JFK an average of 1.5 minutes late. The 14.0 minutes between those two figures are slack the published schedule already carries, which is why a late pushback on this flight does not reliably become a late arrival. It spends 22.3 minutes on the taxiways at LAS, 2.3 minutes longer than a typical LAS departure in the same hour.
On arrival at JFK, DL795 spends 17.5 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 6.1 minutes longer than a typical JFK arrival (11.5 min).
Departure delay is averaged over every pushback and arrival delay over every completed arrival, so the two counts differ by the flights that never reached JFK. Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block rather than on top of it; the comparison is 33,269 departures from LAS scheduled in the clock hour DL795 most often leaves in. Taxi-in is landing to gate, compared against every arrival FlyerIntel has on file at JFK (351,546 flights), not just DL795’s own. More on taxi time.

The hour it leaves LAS
Part of any flight’s record belongs to the clock rather than to the flight. DL795 has one departure time, so this is what that time is worth.
On-time arrival rate. 33,269 departures from LAS are scheduled in the 11 AM–12 PM hour over the period, against 569,617 across the whole day.
DL795 is scheduled out of LAS at 11:15 AM, in the 11 AM–12 PM bank. Departures from LAS in that hour arrive on time 79.8% of the time against 78.0% across the airport’s whole day, so the hour DL795 leaves in is an ordinary one for LAS and explains nothing about its record either way.
The two airport figures cover every departure from LAS to every destination, so they describe the slot rather than this journey — the like-for-like comparison against the route is above. Hours are scheduled local, and a number whose schedule moved between banks inside the period has no single hour and is not described here at all. Why the hour matters.

Other routes DL795 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 DL795 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.
54 min late
against a median of 12 min early
DL795 has an average that understates its risk: a typical arrival is 12 min early, but the worst tenth are 66 minutes worse than that. If the trip has something unmissable at the end of it, the median is the wrong number to plan against.

Every departure listed carries at least 600 operations, so the comparison is between figures that mean something. DL795 is placed in the same ordering rather than left out of it; the rows around it are the most punctual departures on the route, not all of them, so this is a comparison and not a rank. Schedules change; confirm the departure still operates before booking around this.
Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 657 records of DL795 operating LAS → JFK, 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.
