How AA6459 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA6459 across the MCI and ORD boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left about 10 min early but landed about 37 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA6459 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
