These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 14 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 4061 flies
OO 4061 flies OAK to SLC without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 05:55, used on 197 of 365 flights, with 06:00 (152 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 05:55 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and OO 4061 runs 7 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 4061 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 70% of the 1,410 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.
- 70%Carrier
- 29%Extreme weather
- 1%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 29% 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 4.7 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 1,410 delay minutes reported on OO 4061.
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 1.6% 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 588 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.
Every one of the 365 flights under OO 4061 in the data flew OAK 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 4061
For a booking, OO 4061 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.
