How AA871 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA871 across the PHX and CLT boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left a little late (~9 min) but landed about 21 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA871 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
