AS 392 lands a B+, 2 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in five arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by about 45 minutes on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 352 flights, with a median arrival 4 minutes early.

These figures cover 352 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 4 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.

Schedule

When AS 392 flies

AS 392 flies PDX to DFW without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:45, used on 55 of 352 flights, with 11:28 (50 flights) and 10:59 (45 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.

A 10:45 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and AS 392 runs 5 points worse at 79.6%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Against the route

AS 392 next to PDX to DFW

Every carrier on PDX to DFW combined arrived on time 80.7% of the time across 2,412 flights, so AS 392 is about level with it. Across its whole network Alaska Airlines managed 79.1%, close to this flight's figure.

Across the year

AS 392 quarter by quarter

AS 392 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 92.1% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 64.1%, a swing of 28 points on roughly 88 flights a quarter. The twelve-month rate averages over that, so if you are flying in a weak quarter the quarter's own figure is the better guide.

Jul–Sep 202592 flights64.1%
Oct–Dec 202590 flights82.0%
Jan–Mar 202679 flights80.8%
Apr–Jun 202691 flights92.1%

Scale runs 55% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, AS 392 did best on Sunday at 88.0% on time and worst on Saturday at 66.0%. Each day rests on about 50 flights, so a gap of 22 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why AS 392 runs late

Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 3,205 reported delay minutes.

National Airspace System
40%
Late-arriving aircraft
37%
Carrier
22%
Extreme weather
1%

37% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. That is a cascade, and cascades start small and grow through the day. Across 3,205 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 37 to one. It is the strongest argument for booking the first departure of the morning, when the aircraft has been sitting at the gate overnight with nothing to inherit. The split is drawn from 3,205 delay minutes reported on AS 392.

Cancellations are rare at 0.57%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is 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 3.7% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% 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.

At 1,616 miles this is transcontinental flying, and long routes get a quiet structural advantage. Scheduled block time on a flight this length carries more padding in absolute minutes, so a twenty-minute late departure often still becomes an on-time arrival. Read the on-time rate here as slightly flattering next to a short-haul route with the same operational quality.

Every one of the 352 flights under AS 392 in the data flew PDX to DFW. 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. 352 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 392

For a booking, read AS 392 as 79.6% on time with 0.57% cancelled over 352 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
