As typical, these things really have nothing to do with the route itself. N421DX is flying the route today and came in from SLC where it spent 4.5 hours on the ground yesterday when it was only supposed to be in SLC for around 2 hours. The delay in SLC for SLC-CDG inbound flight naturally cascaded into the delay on today's CDG-JFK flight.
