UA2664
San Francisco (SFO) to Baltimore (BWI) · scheduled 9:10 AM – 5:57 PM
How UA2664 performs
650 operations, May 2024 – July 2026.
UA2664 arrived on time 88.9% of the time, against 83.4% for all SFO → BWI flights, so this departure is 5.5 percentage points better than the route as a whole. Against United Airlines’ own flights on this route it is 1.3 points better.
UA2664’s scheduled departure has moved during the period FlyerIntel has on file: it typically left around 8:30 AM earlier on, and around 9:15 AM more recently — a 45-minute shift, not the few minutes of day-to-day rounding every published schedule carries. Confirm the current departure time before booking around an older listing.

Why UA2664 runs late
Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.
the inbound aircraft was late, so this flight started late
crew, maintenance, boarding and fueling, all within the carrier’s control
airspace and airport capacity, including weather-driven flow control
weather severe enough to stop this flight specifically
Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for UA2664 on SFO → BWI. Only delays of 15 minutes or more are attributed.

Does a late aircraft delay this flight?
How often the plane that flies UA2664 comes in late, and what that does to the departure.
The aircraft flying UA2664 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 SFO just before it, using the tail number in the DOT file, 549 of 647 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 |
|---|---|
| UA2664 | 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 UA2664’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 SFO late, does that still matter by the time it reaches BWI?
UA2664 pushes back an average of 2.9 minutes late and reaches the gate at BWI an average of 6.3 minutes early. The 9.2 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 23.8 minutes on the taxiways at SFO, 1.3 minutes longer than a typical SFO departure in the same hour.
On arrival at BWI, UA2664 spends 5.9 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 BWI 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 BWI. Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block rather than on top of it; the comparison is 26,943 departures from SFO scheduled in the clock hour UA2664 most often leaves in. Taxi-in is landing to gate, compared against every arrival FlyerIntel has on file at BWI (299,179 flights), not just UA2664’s own. More on taxi time.

The hour it leaves SFO
Part of any flight’s record belongs to the clock rather than to the flight. UA2664 has one departure time, so this is what that time is worth.
On-time arrival rate. 26,943 departures from SFO are scheduled in the 9 AM–10 AM hour over the period, against 435,779 across the whole day.
UA2664 is scheduled out of SFO at 9:10 AM, in the 9 AM–10 AM bank. Departures from SFO in that hour arrive on time 82.7% of the time against 78.7% across the airport’s whole day — the slot alone is worth 4.0 points better before anything about this particular flight is considered.
The two airport figures cover every departure from SFO 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 UA2664 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.

Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 650 records of UA2664 operating SFO → BWI, 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.
