Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 3759, 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 3759 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 11 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs roughly 50 minutes. That rests on 347 flights, with a median arrival 12 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, OO 3759's record is 11 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 108 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 347 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 12 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 3759 flies

OO 3759 flies LAX to SMF without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 15:40, used on 47 of 347 flights, with 16:15 (41 flights) and 15:45 (38 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 15:40 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and OO 3759 runs 16 points better at 88.4%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

OO 3759 quarter by quarter

OO 3759 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 95.7% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 78.8%, a swing of 17 points on roughly 87 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 3759 ranged from 83.3% on Monday to 94.0% on Tuesday. With about 50 flights behind each day, a spread of 11 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.

Delay causes

Why OO 3759 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 85% of the 2,076 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
    85%
  • Extreme weather
    11%
  • National Airspace System
    4%

The largest share of delay minutes, 85%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 1,764 of the 2,076 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 2,076 delay minutes reported on OO 3759.

Cancellations are rare at 0.00%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Almost no flights are 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 2.9% 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.

OO 3759 is not only a LAX to SMF flight. It also flew SMF to LAX (266 flights, 89.8% 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. 347 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.
