These figures cover 319 flights between September 2025 and August 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.

Share of 310 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
Time lost at the gate mostly stays lost. Of 40 departures that left 15 minutes late or more, only 4 made it up before arrival. In the other direction, 18 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at ORD.

- 27%National Airspace System
- 10%Late-arriving aircraft
- 6%Extreme weather
The largest share of delay minutes, 58%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. It accounts for 3,315 of the 5,756 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 5,756 delay minutes reported on OO 4714.
Cancellations run at 2.51%, against 1.89% 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
7.7% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so 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 same number turns up on three other city pairs in the data, including ORD to TYS (35), DEN to BZN (21) and GSP to ORD (1), but none flew often enough under OO 4714 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to FNT to ORD only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 319 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 4714
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on OO 4714: 2.51% of its 319 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs close to two hours, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
