These figures cover 307 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 13 minutes early, which is the part an average hides: most flights here are fine, and the on-time rate is decided by a tail of badly late ones. On-time means under 15 minutes late, the DOT's own threshold.

The latest arrival of the period was on 8 March 2026, 4 hours 23 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as a late-arriving aircraft. The same cause led on four of the five worst days.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 8 March 2026 | 4 hours 23 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 8 May 2026 | 2 hours 18 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 22 December 2025 | 2 hours 5 minutes | Carrier |
| 23 April 2026 | 1 hour 50 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |

Delay causes
Why AS 1405 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 65% of the 1,589 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 65%Late-arriving aircraft
- 25%Carrier
- 10%National Airspace System
65% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 1,589 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 65 to one. The split is drawn from 1,589 delay minutes reported on AS 1405.
Cancellations are rare at 0.00%, below the national 1.89% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Almost no flights are called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 2.6% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
The 859 miles between these two airports put this in the middle of the US network, around two and a half to three hours of block time. That is enough cruise to absorb a ten-minute late pushback and not enough to absorb thirty.
Every one of the 307 flights under AS 1405 in the data flew SNA to PDX. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 307 flights over twelve months is enough to clear this site's floor but not enough to pin the rate down tightly, and a single bad week moves it by more than a point. Treat the grade as a rough reading.
What to do with this
Booking AS 1405
For a booking, AS 1405 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 90.2% on time and 0.00% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
