Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 4768, 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 4768 draws a C+. About one flight in three arrives at least 15 minutes late, and the typical late arrival is a little over an hour behind schedule. Build slack into anything you connect to. That rests on 309 flights, with a median arrival 3 minutes late.
The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so OO 4768 runs 11 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 106 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 309 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 14.1% 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

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 17:17 departure sits in the 5pm–8pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 68.2%, and OO 4768 runs level with that at 67.0%. 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 4768 quarter by quarter
OO 4768 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 79.6% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 43.3%, a swing of 36 points on roughly 77 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.

- Oct–Dec 202574 flights78.4%
- Jan–Mar 202689 flights73.9%

By weekday, OO 4768 did best on Wednesday at 84.1% on time and worst on Friday at 59.1%. Each day rests on about 44 flights, so a gap of 25 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why OO 4768 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 51% of the 7,121 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.
- 51%National Airspace System
- 26%Late-arriving aircraft
- 18%Carrier
- 5%Extreme weather
51% of delay minutes are charged to the National Airspace System: air traffic volume, runway configuration, ground stops. No carrier can price its way out of that, which is why airport choice moves the number here more than carrier choice does. That is 3,636 minutes out of 7,121, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 7,121 delay minutes reported on OO 4768.
Cancellations are rare at 0.32%, 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. 14.1% 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 same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including ABQ to DEN (33), but none flew often enough under OO 4768 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to OKC to DEN only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 309 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 4768
For a booking, OO 4768 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 14.1% of its completed flights arrived an hour or more late, which a short layover will not absorb. If the onward flight is on a separate ticket, the risk sits with you.
