How CI5231 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for CI5231 across the ORD and ANC boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left heavily delayed (~493 min) but landed about 6 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how CI5231 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
