Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 4672, 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 4672 sits in the middle of the pack with a C+. Close to three flights in four arrive on time by the DOT's definition, 3 points worse than the national rate of 77.6%. The late ones land an hour and a half behind schedule. That rests on 271 flights, with a median arrival 2 minutes early.

These figures cover 271 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 10.1% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.
Schedule
When OO 4672 flies
OO 4672 flies DEN to BFL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 19:10, used on 61 of 271 flights, with 19:20 (56 flights) and 19:15 (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 19:10 departure sits in the 5pm–8pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 68.2%, and OO 4672 runs 6 points better at 74.5%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Across the year
OO 4672 quarter by quarter
OO 4672 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jan–Mar 2026 at 86.4% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 55.6%, a swing of 31 points on roughly 68 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.
- Jul–Sep 202592 flights55.6%
- Oct–Dec 202539 flights76.9%
- Jan–Mar 202690 flights86.4%
- Apr–Jun 202650 flights86.0%
Scale runs 45% to 90%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, OO 4672 did best on Thursday at 79.5% on time and worst on Friday at 64.9%. Each day rests on about 39 flights, so a gap of 15 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why OO 4672 runs late
Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 6,756 reported delay minutes.
- 34%Late-arriving aircraft
- 26%Carrier
- 23%National Airspace System
- 17%Extreme weather
Extreme weather accounts for 17% 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 2.7 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 6,756 delay minutes reported on OO 4672.
Cancellations are rare at 0.74%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 10.1% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
The 845 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.
The same number turns up on four other city pairs in the data, including TUS to ORD (35), SEA to SFO (25) and DEN to BOI (16), but none flew often enough under OO 4672 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to DEN to BFL only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 271 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.
