These figures cover 334 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 8.7% 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 OH 5495 flies

OH 5495 flies CAK to CLT without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 06:19, used on 44 of 334 flights, with 06:32 (37 flights) and 06:35 (34 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 06:19 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and OH 5495 runs 2 points worse at 87.2%. 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

OH 5495 quarter by quarter

OH 5495 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 92.4% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 79.7%, a swing of 13 points on roughly 84 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 flights92.4%
Oct–Dec 202584 flights86.6%
Jan–Mar 202674 flights79.7%
Apr–Jun 202684 flights88.0%

Scale runs 70% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, OH 5495 did best on Thursday at 98.0% on time and worst on Saturday at 78.0%. Each day rests on about 48 flights, so a gap of 20 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why OH 5495 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 62% of the 6,608 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.

Late-arriving aircraft
29%
Extreme weather
5%
National Airspace System
4%

The largest share of delay minutes, 62%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 4,121 of the 6,608 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 6,608 delay minutes reported on OH 5495.

Cancellations run at 3.29%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about one flight in 30 cancelled outright. A cancelled flight is invisible in every on-time figure on this page, so the punctuality numbers above describe only the flights that actually operated.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

8.7% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last about 2.7 hours, which a normal layover absorbs.

Every one of the 334 flights under OH 5495 in the data flew CAK to CLT. 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. 334 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 OH 5495

For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on OH 5495: 3.29% of its 334 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs about 2.7 hours, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
