How UA2038 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for UA2038 across the PHL and IAH 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 12 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how UA2038 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
