These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 15 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 3940 flies

OO 3940 flies COS to SLC without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 08:15, used on 133 of 365 flights, with 07:59 (62 flights) and 08:00 (54 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 08:15 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and OO 3940 runs 12 points better at 96.4%. 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 3940 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Extreme weather accounts for 72% of the 1,300 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.

Extreme weather accounts for 72% 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 11.6 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 1,300 delay minutes reported on OO 3940.

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 0.8% 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 365 flights under OO 3940 in the data flew COS to SLC. 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. 365 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 3940

For a booking, OO 3940 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 96.4% on time and 0.00% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
