Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 3687, 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 3687 lands a B+, 5 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in six arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by close to two hours on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 263 flights, with a median arrival 9 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, OO 3687's record is 5 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 48 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 263 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 11.5% 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 3687 flies
OO 3687 flies DTW to LAN without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:00, used on 68 of 263 flights, with 10:10 (50 flights) and 10:15 (39 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 10:00 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and OO 3687 runs level with that at 82.4%. 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 3687 quarter by quarter
OO 3687 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 92.9% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 64.7%, a swing of 28 points on roughly 66 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.

By weekday, OO 3687 did best on Sunday at 91.7% on time and worst on Friday at 71.4%. Each day rests on about 38 flights, so a gap of 20 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why OO 3687 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 83% of the 4,829 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.
- 83%Carrier
- 11%Extreme weather
- 6%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 11% 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 1.8 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 4,829 delay minutes reported on OO 3687.
Cancellations are rare at 0.76%, 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. 11.5% 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.
OO 3687 is not only a DTW to LAN flight. It also flew LAN to DTW (257 flights, 79.2% on time) often enough to be scored on its own. Airlines attach one number to several legs of an aircraft's day, and each leg keeps its own record here, so check which city pair is on your booking before reading a rate.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 263 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.
