Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for MQ3945 on ORD → MEM. A single late flight can carry more than one cause, and only delays of fifteen minutes or more are attributed at all.

MQ3945 pushes back an average of 18.3 minutes late and reaches the gate at MEM an average of 14.1 minutes late. The 4.2 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 25.5 minutes on the taxiways at ORD, 1.2 minutes shorter than a typical ORD departure in the same hour.

On arrival at MEM, MQ3945 spends 6.7 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 about what any arrival at MEM spends on the ground before reaching the gate.

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 MEM. Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block rather than on top of it; the comparison is 66,182 departures from ORD scheduled in the clock hour MQ3945 most often leaves in. Taxi-in is landing to gate, compared against every arrival FlyerIntel has on file at MEM (72,783 flights), not just MQ3945’s own. More on taxi time.

MQ3945 is scheduled out of ORD at 8:31 PM, in the 8 PM–9 PM bank. Departures from ORD in that hour arrive on time 64.7% of the time against 74.5% across the airport’s whole day — the slot alone is worth 9.8 points worse before anything about this particular flight is considered.

The two airport figures cover every departure from ORD 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.

Because the same number has served different journeys, the statistics above describe only the route MQ3945 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.

Every departure listed carries at least 600 operations, so the comparison is between figures that mean something. MQ3945 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.
