These figures cover 295 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 9.2% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.
Schedule
When F9 1876 flies
F9 1876 flies LAS to MCO without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 23:00, used on 55 of 295 flights, with 23:59 (40 flights) and 23:04 (32 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 23:00 departure sits in the 8pm–5am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 70.5%, and F9 1876 runs 2 points better at 72.7%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Across the year
F9 1876 quarter by quarter
F9 1876 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 82.0% on time and its weakest Apr–Jun 2026 at 58.2%, a swing of 24 points on roughly 74 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.

- Oct–Dec 202590 flights82.0%
- Jan–Mar 202668 flights74.6%

By weekday, F9 1876 did best on Tuesday at 85.7% on time and worst on Sunday at 57.8%. Each day rests on about 42 flights, so a gap of 28 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why F9 1876 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 45% of the 5,929 delay minutes carriers reported, and the remaining four split what is left. The split is by minutes rather than by flights, so a few very long delays count for as much as many short ones.
- 45%Carrier
- 42%Late-arriving aircraft
- 13%National Airspace System
42% 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 5,929 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 42 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 5,929 delay minutes reported on F9 1876.
Cancellations are rare at 0.68%, 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
For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 9.2% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
At 2,039 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 295 flights under F9 1876 in the data flew LAS to MCO. 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. 295 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 F9 1876
