Delay causes
Why OO 3433 runs late

- 49%Late-arriving aircraft
- 32%Carrier
- 16%National Airspace System
- 3%Extreme weather
49% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 2,958 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 18 to one. The split is drawn from 2,958 delay minutes reported on OO 3433.

Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
6.0% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last about an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.
The same number turns up on four other city pairs in the data, including BLI to SEA (215), STS to SNA (46) and SNA to STS (19), but none flew often enough under OO 3433 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to SEA to BLI only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 258 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 OO 3433
