  1. Initial Observed

    O'Hare arrivals slow to reach the ramp: 51% took 22+ min after landing

    Of 91 aircraft that landed at O'Hare (ORD) between 5:58 PM and 6:58 PM CDT and have reached the ramp, 46 took 22 minutes or more from touchdown, at least 10 minutes over the airport’s typical 11.8 minutes; the median was 21.9 minutes. Usually 14% take that long (this airport, the last 7 days). Measured by Tailodds from FAA surface surveillance; it does not show why.
