Delay & cancellation outlook for this flight

Early read, sample still building
33%Chance of 15+ min delay
2.1%Chance of cancellation

Conditions at IAH and CLT are near their clear-air norm right now, so this reflects the route's recent baseline rather than a weather penalty. For this route and airline, under conditions like today's, over the last 90 days. This route's tracked sample is still thin — treat these as an early read, not a precise forecast.

How AA3162 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA3162 across the IAH and CLT boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: left right on schedule but landed about 16 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA3162 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
