These figures cover 352 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 6 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.

A 10:45 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 83.9%, and AS 392 runs level with that at 83.6%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

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 76.7%, a swing of 15 points on roughly 70 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.

- Jan–Mar 202679 flights80.8%

Scale runs 70% to 100%.
By weekday, AS 392 did best on Sunday at 88.0% on time and worst on Saturday at 74.5%. Each day rests on about 50 flights, so a gap of 14 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Arrival by arrival
How late AS 392 runs when it is late
AS 392 often beats the schedule: 100 of 348 completed flights, 29%, arrived 15 minutes or more early. The 57 late arrivals split 28 under half an hour, 22 between 30 and 60 minutes, and 7 an hour or more.

Share of 348 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
A late pushback is often recovered here: of 58 departures that left 15 minutes late or more, 28 still arrived on time. In the other direction, 27 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at DFW.
The worst days
Worst days for AS 392
The latest arrival of the period was on 20 December 2025, 3 hours 14 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as carrier-caused (crew, maintenance, fuelling, baggage). The same cause led on four of the five worst days.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 20 December 2025 | 3 hours 14 minutes | Carrier |
| 19 September 2025 | 2 hours 1 minute | National Airspace System |
| 10 February 2026 | 1 hour 43 minutes | Carrier |
| 13 September 2025 | 1 hour 38 minutes | Carrier |
| 9 January 2026 | 1 hour 36 minutes | Carrier |
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 2,278 reported delay minutes.
- 36%National Airspace System
- 35%Late-arriving aircraft
- 29%Carrier
- 1%Extreme weather
35% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 2,278 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 35 to one. The split is drawn from 2,278 delay minutes reported on AS 392.
Cancellations are rare at 0.57%, below the national 1.89% 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 2.0% 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.
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 83.6% on time with 0.57% cancelled over 352 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
