These figures cover 250 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 5 minutes early, which is the part an average hides: most flights here are fine, and the on-time rate is decided by a tail of badly late ones. On-time means under 15 minutes late, the DOT's own threshold.

| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 18 February 2026 | 2 hours 55 minutes | Carrier |
| 6 April 2026 | 2 hours 25 minutes | Carrier |

Delay causes
Why OO 3706 runs late
Carrier accounts for 76% of the 2,088 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 76%Carrier
- 15%Extreme weather
- 9%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 15% 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 2.5 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 2,088 delay minutes reported on OO 3706.
Cancellations are rare at 0.40%, below the national 1.89% 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
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 4.0% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
The 840 miles between these two airports put this in the middle of the US network, around two and a half to three hours of block time. That is enough cruise to absorb a ten-minute late pushback and not enough to absorb thirty.
The same number turns up on two other city pairs in the data, including SLC to GEG (84) and GEG to SLC (84), but none flew often enough under OO 3706 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to SLC to OMA only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 250 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.
