Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 3483, check with SkyWest Airlines. SkyWest Airlines flies under contract for larger airlines, so a ticket for this flight may show a different airline code and number.
OO 3483 lands a B+, about a point 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 a little over an hour on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 260 flights, with a median arrival 5 minutes early.

These figures cover 260 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 9.3% 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 OO 3483 flies
OO 3483 flies PDX to STS without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 07:15, used on 105 of 260 flights, with 07:00 (86 flights) and 07:05 (28 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 07:15 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and OO 3483 runs 11 points worse at 78.5%. 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
OO 3483 quarter by quarter
OO 3483 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 92.9% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 55.7%, a swing of 37 points on roughly 65 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 202569 flights55.7%
- Jan–Mar 202679 flights84.2%

By weekday, OO 3483 did best on Wednesday at 87.1% on time and worst on Saturday at 73.0%. Each day rests on about 37 flights, so a gap of 14 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why OO 3483 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Extreme weather accounts for 45% of the 4,113 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%Extreme weather
- 35%Carrier
- 13%Late-arriving aircraft
- 8%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 45% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 7.2 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 4,113 delay minutes reported on OO 3483.
Cancellations are rare at 0.77%, 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. 9.3% 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.
The same number turns up on two other city pairs in the data, including RDM to PDX (50) and PDX to SFO (4), but none flew often enough under OO 3483 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to PDX to STS only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 260 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.
