These figures cover 364 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 16 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 4721 flies
OO 4721 flies PSC to DEN without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 12:45, used on 233 of 364 flights. 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 12:45 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and OO 4721 runs 9 points better at 87.7%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
OO 4721 quarter by quarter
OO 4721 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 95.6% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 79.8%, a swing of 16 points on roughly 91 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 4721 did best on Saturday at 94.0% on time and worst on Thursday at 80.0%. 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 4721 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 3,688 reported delay minutes.
- 36%Carrier
- 30%Late-arriving aircraft
- 25%National Airspace System
- 9%Extreme weather
The largest share of delay minutes, 36%, 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 1,324 of the 3,688 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 3,688 delay minutes reported on OO 4721.
Cancellations are rare at 0.27%, 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
5.9% 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 an hour and a half, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 853 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.
Every one of the 364 flights under OO 4721 in the data flew PSC to DEN. 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. 364 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 4721
For a booking, OO 4721 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 87.7% on time and 0.27% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
