How AA2720 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA2720 across the PHL and STL boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left a little late (~18 min) but landed about 24 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA2720 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
