I was sitting in the NH lounge at HND waiting for my UA flight and noticed AC002 HNDYYZ was delayed 35 min (and counting). Quelle surprise. I then was curious how far back this delay started for this FIN (806, a 788). Couldn’t believe this FIN has been delayed with no possibility of catching up since 21 July!

Date Flight Route STD/ATD STA/ATA Delay

26JUL AC002 HNDYYZ 1740/1924 1650/1841 1h51m
25JUL AC001 YYZHND 1325/1506 1540/1715 1h35m
25JUL AC807 EDIYYZ 0900/1137 1110/1334 2h24m
24JUL AC806 YYZEDI 1905/2226 0625/0941 3h06m
24JUL AC002 HNDYYZ 1740/2035 1650/1956 3h06m
23JUL AC001 YYZHND 1325/1700 1540/1859 3h19m
23JUL AC829 CPHYYZ 1225/1241 1440/1521 0h41m
22JUL AC828 YYZCPH 2115/2214 1050/1128 0h38m
22JUL AC002 HNDYYZ 1740/2118 1650/2035 3h45m
21JUL AC001 YYZHND 1325/1750 1540/1932 3h52m

Now there was some plane substitution made on 23JUL from CPH to HND, but the fact that AC can’t recover their schedule from these types of rolling delays is a really bad look for them. They really have no slack in the system and not enough planes to reliability run their schedule.
