Paranioa of Flight Delays?
Alright, I asked this question a while ago, but now its closer and more definite. I am going from Albuquerque to Omaha, and stopping in Dallas. The weather in Albuquerque (Where I live)- 32 degrees, 12Mph (No problem here) Dallas- 60some degrees Thundershowers (Thats the bad part, AA can't keep a flight on time if they wanted too...) Omaha- Partyly cloudy My concern is Dallas!!! we have a 1 hour layover (and were traveling on the 25th) so delays are UNACCEPTABLE!! and as you can see, I'm paranoid, and I'm very scared for the dallas part, I know pilots can land in rain and even typhoons, but its American Airlines, and I'm not very confident in them. I've been checking their statuses for the same flight the past few days: Saturday: 2 hours late Sunday: 2 Minutes late Monday: 3 Minutes early Today: 11 minutes late I'm just very concerned, can someone truthfully make me feel better?

Truthfully? No, we cannot make you feel any better. You can get loads of information about the on-time performance from this web site: http://www.transtats.bts.gov/HomeDrillChart.asp For this entire year, for all AA flights arriving in DFW, 15% of American Airline's flights have been delayed. From this web site, you can get even more specific and track performance between specific airports, and for specific airlines and for specific flight numbers: http://www.bts.gov/xml/ontimesummarystatistics/src/index.xml For example, choose the "Origin and Destination Airport" link. The select ABQ as the origin, and DFW as the destination, then you can see that from Jan - through Sep of this year, 12% of flights were delayed in arrival. You can get performance statistics on the specific flight by choosing the Flight Number link. However, all delays are unpredictable, really. It depends on many different factors, and there is no way at all that we can predict what will happen on the specific flight that you end up taking. All we can do is to wish you good luck and clear skies.....
