OO 4305 earns an A. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 8 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs an hour and a half. That rests on 359 flights, with a median arrival 13 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, OO 4305's record is 8 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 78 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 359 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 13 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 4305 flies
OO 4305 flies RHI to MSP without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:59, used on 64 of 359 flights, with 10:55 (62 flights) and 10:50 (52 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 10:59 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and OO 4305 runs level with that at 85.4%. 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 4305 quarter by quarter
OO 4305 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 92.2% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 78.2%, a swing of 14 points on roughly 90 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 4305 ranged from 80.8% on Monday to 90.4% on Tuesday. With about 51 flights behind each day, a spread of 10 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.
Delay causes
Why OO 4305 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 56% of the 4,513 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.
- 56%Carrier
- 39%Extreme weather
- 5%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 39% 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 6.3 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 4,513 delay minutes reported on OO 4305.
Cancellations run at 2.51%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about 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
7.1% 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 an hour and a half, which a normal layover absorbs.
OO 4305 is not only a RHI to MSP flight. It also flew MSP to RHI (359 flights, 86.8% 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. 359 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.
