Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 3717, 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 3717 earns an A+. Close to nine flights in ten arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 15 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs roughly 50 minutes. That rests on 357 flights, with a median arrival 9 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, OO 3717's record is 15 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 151 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 357 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 9 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.
Schedule
When OO 3717 flies
OO 3717 flies SLC to TUS without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 15:00, used on 111 of 357 flights, with 15:10 (49 flights) and 15:15 (44 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 15:00 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and OO 3717 runs 20 points better at 92.7%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

By weekday, OO 3717 ranged from 86.5% on Sunday to 96.1% on Saturday. With about 51 flights behind each day, a spread of 10 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.
Delay causes
Why OO 3717 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 76% of the 1,265 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.
- 76%Carrier
- 21%Extreme weather
- 4%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 21% 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 3.3 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 1,265 delay minutes reported on OO 3717.
Cancellations are rare at 0.28%, 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
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 2.5% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% 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 600 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. It is also long enough that the aircraft usually flies three or four legs a day rather than six, which slows how fast delay compounds.
The same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including TUS to SLC (156), but none flew often enough under OO 3717 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to SLC to TUS only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 357 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 3717
For a booking, OO 3717 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 92.7% on time and 0.28% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
