Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 4678, 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 4678 earns an A+. Close to nine flights in ten arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 10 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs close to two hours. That rests on 277 flights, with a median arrival 12 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, OO 4678's record is 10 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 101 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 277 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 12 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 4678 flies
OO 4678 flies BOI to SFO without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 07:45, used on 104 of 277 flights, with 06:30 (41 flights) and 06:15 (31 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 07:45 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and OO 4678 runs level with that at 87.7%. 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 4678 quarter by quarter
OO 4678 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 95.6% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 80.9%, a swing of 15 points on roughly 69 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 4678 did best on Friday at 100.0% on time and worst on Tuesday at 82.1%. Each day rests on about 40 flights, so a gap of 18 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why OO 4678 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 70% of the 4,019 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
- 16%National Airspace System
- 14%Late-arriving aircraft
The largest share of delay minutes, 70%, 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 2,828 of the 4,019 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 4,019 delay minutes reported on OO 4678.
Cancellations are rare at 0.36%, 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
5.4% 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 close to two hours, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 522 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 seven other city pairs in the data, including IAH to BTR (36), IAH to AUS (35) and SFO to FCA (8), but none flew often enough under OO 4678 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to BOI to SFO only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 277 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 4678
For a booking, OO 4678 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 87.7% on time and 0.36% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
