UA 189 SFO to MNL delayed 41 minutes on departure due to holding for delayed connecting passengers - despite an on-time landing, gate arrival was 34 minutes late due to taxiway and gate traffic at MNL

Are they the same hour though? Years ago (no runway construction) I had a 1 pm SFO-LHR. Due to morning fog the flight was delayed to 2 pm. They added quite a few minutes of taxi time just because 2 pm has more Rwy 28 departure delay.

Looks like it had ~4 hour delay so that is that might have triggered crew time?

UA2083 UIO-IAH delayed both 4/7 and 4/8 -- only about an hour delay each day but an impactful one as almost everyone is connecting.

Both instances were driven by upstream MX/equipment changes. UA ops very delayed in updating the departure time (i.e. UA1002 already in the air for 12:30am arrival, but 2083 still showing 12:40am departure), making changes very difficult. Not fun yesterday particularly with Monday loads limiting options rather severely.

I'm not sure a less than 1 hour delay rises to the level of needing inclusion here? I think we're looking more at significant delays/cancelations?

Possibly - that flight appeared to go straight to SFO.

It’s delayed tonight too. Inbound from IAH is behind schedule. Seems UIO is having bad luck.

UA145 OPO-EWR 752 cancelled due to maintenance.
UA883 LHR-EWR 763 cancelled due to maintenance.

UA805 SFO-ICN 772 on 4/13 already cancelled due to supposedly maintenance, although the scheduled assigned plane (N76010) is currently flying to Rome now, which is strange.

Two days out, the assignment isn't that meaningful. They likely already determined they were short a plane and decided that was the least-impactful cancellation they could post. The is more lead time for the cancel than I'd expect, though, I agree that part is surprising.

Possibly so, especially with SFO-ICN being 2x daily now. Loads for Y for UA805 and UA893 today and tomorrow is about 75%.
