These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 26 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 4292 flies

OO 4292 flies RHI to MSP without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 06:30, used on 233 of 365 flights, with 06:31 (94 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 06:30 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and OO 4292 runs level with that at 90.7%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year

OO 4292 quarter by quarter

By weekday, OO 4292 did best on Wednesday at 98.0% on time and worst on Monday at 84.3%. Each day rests on about 52 flights, so a gap of 14 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why OO 4292 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 85% of the 5,705 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
10%
National Airspace System
5%

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 4,842 of the 5,705 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 5,705 delay minutes reported on OO 4292.

Cancellations run at 2.74%, against 1.81% nationally. That is roughly one flight in 40 cancelled outright. A cancelled flight is invisible in every on-time figure on this page, so the punctuality numbers above describe only the flights that actually operated.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

5.9% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last about 2.9 hours, which a normal layover absorbs.

Every one of the 365 flights under OO 4292 in the data flew RHI to MSP. 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 4292

For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on OO 4292: 2.74% of its 365 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs about 2.9 hours, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
