How AA5840 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA5840 across the AVL and PHL boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left noticeably late (~31 min) but landed a little late (~9 min). Not enough to call it.
The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA5840 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
