Historical flight performance data?
Hi al
I’m currently on a very short trip from ICN-CHA. due to the snow in ORD last night I’m still making my way to CHA via IAD.
I’m due to leave this Wed on UA5733 at 17.34 to connect in ORD before going to ICN via OZ. I’m concerned that the connecting flight from CHA won’t make it’s later in the day and could get cancelled or rescheduled due to delays throughout the day.
Wondering FTers would suggest here. I HAVE to be back in ICN by Friday, anytime, but earlier the better.
1) what is the historical performance of flights from CHA-ORD in the evenings - typically get cancelled or delayed?
2) this is an award ticket, would UA reroute me to an earlier flight? (Been on hold with them for 40mins now!)
3) what is the first flight of the day out of CHA where the plane and crew will start the day from? I ask this as I’m on the first flight to CHA from IAD right now but my flight is delayed again as the plane/crew isn’t here yet from the inbound.
Thanks in advance!

The performance of that 17:34 flight is very poor.

Wow glad I was able to get the wisdom from fellow FTers, didn’t know about that feature. Can’t believe the on time performance is so low! I am going to reroute on KE via ATL-ICN. Will be expensive but getting to ICN is important. Thanks all again
