What the data says

The late departure is the smart one here.

SDF–LAX flights departing between 6–9 PM arrived on time 84% of the time, versus 66% between 3–6 PM.

Sunday scaries are real for this one.

SDF–LAX flights arrived on time 100% of the time on Tuesdays and just 68% on Sundays. That gap is worth planning around.
