Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 5415, 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 5415 earns an A. Close to nine flights in ten arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 10 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs a little over an hour. That rests on 284 flights, with a median arrival 7 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, OO 5415's record is 10 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 95 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 284 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 7 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 5415 flies

OO 5415 flies LAX to SAN without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 18:50, used on 141 of 284 flights, with 18:45 (32 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Scale runs 0% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.

A 18:50 departure sits in the 5pm–8pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 68.2%, and OO 5415 runs 19 points better at 87.1%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Delay causes

Why OO 5415 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 49% of the 2,783 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.

  • National Airspace System
    49%
  • Carrier
    28%
  • Late-arriving aircraft
    20%
  • Extreme weather
    3%

49% 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 1,359 minutes out of 2,783, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 2,783 delay minutes reported on OO 5415.

Cancellations sit at 2.11% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 4.7% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.

The same number turns up on two other city pairs in the data, including IAH to LFT (17) and PHX to LAX (1), but none flew often enough under OO 5415 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to LAX to SAN only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 284 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 5415

For a booking, read OO 5415 as 87.1% on time with 2.11% cancelled over 284 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
