These figures cover 365 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 8 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

OO 4797 flies DEN to CPR without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 13:25, used on 253 of 365 flights, with 13:30 (85 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 13:25 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and OO 4797 runs 5 points better at 84.1%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Delay causes
Why OO 4797 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 3,811 reported delay minutes.
- 42%Carrier
- 33%Late-arriving aircraft
- 17%National Airspace System
- 8%Extreme weather
- 1%Security
The largest share of delay minutes, 42%, 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 1,589 of the 3,811 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 3,811 delay minutes reported on OO 4797.
Cancellations sit at 1.10% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.55%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
5.6% 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 about an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.
Every one of the 365 flights under OO 4797 in the data flew DEN to CPR. 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. 365 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 4797
