These figures cover 363 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 10 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 3743 flies

OO 3743 flies SAN to LAX without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 06:20, used on 241 of 363 flights, with 06:35 (61 flights) and 06:15 (55 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 06:20 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and OO 3743 runs 5 points better at 94.5%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Delay causes

Why OO 3743 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 52% of the 937 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.

Carrier
52%
Extreme weather
41%
National Airspace System
7%

Extreme weather accounts for 41% 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 6.6 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 937 delay minutes reported on OO 3743.

Cancellations are rare at 0.55%, 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 1.1% 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.

Every one of the 363 flights under OO 3743 in the data flew SAN to LAX. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 363 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 3743

For a booking, OO 3743 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 94.5% on time and 0.55% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
