These figures cover 281 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 10.7% 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

When OO 5286 flies

OO 5286 flies SFO to RDD without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 11:05, used on 91 of 281 flights, with 11:25 (49 flights) and 09:27 (37 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 11:05 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and OO 5286 runs 5 points worse at 74.3%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

OO 5286 quarter by quarter

OO 5286 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 85.7% on time and its weakest Apr–Jun 2026 at 42.9%, a swing of 43 points on roughly 70 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.

Jul–Sep 202584 flights85.7%
Oct–Dec 202572 flights64.8%
Jan–Mar 202690 flights83.3%
Apr–Jun 202635 flights42.9%

Scale runs 35% to 90%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, OO 5286 did best on Wednesday at 85.0% on time and worst on Monday at 62.5%. Each day rests on about 40 flights, so a gap of 23 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why OO 5286 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 4,643 reported delay minutes.

National Airspace System
29%
Carrier
28%
Late-arriving aircraft
25%
Extreme weather
17%

Extreme weather accounts for 17% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 2.8 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 4,643 delay minutes reported on OO 5286.

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

For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 10.7% 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 three other city pairs in the data, including ABQ to SFO (56), RDD to SFO (35) and LAX to LAS (3), but none flew often enough under OO 5286 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to SFO to RDD only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 281 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.
