What the record says about AZA

Departures from AZA leave close to schedule more often than most airports in the record. An airport this punctual is usually one with spare capacity in its runway slots.

With 40 routes in the record, AZA is a hub, and hubs carry a particular risk: a delay early in the day propagates through every aircraft that was due to fly on afterwards. Morning departures from a hub are reliably better than evening ones.
