How AA2627 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA2627 across the ORD and SMF boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left noticeably late (~29 min) but landed a little late (~16 min). Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA2627 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
