Delay causes

Why OO 5479 runs late

National Airspace System accounts for 45% of the 5,227 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.

  • National Airspace System
    45%
  • Late-arriving aircraft
    23%
  • Carrier
    20%
  • Extreme weather
    11%

Extreme weather accounts for 11% 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 1.8 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 5,227 delay minutes reported on OO 5479.

Cancellations are rare at 0.36%, below the national 1.89% 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

13.4% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection 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 ORD to ABE (78), SAT to SFO (75) and SFO to FAT (6), but none flew often enough under OO 5479 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to SFO to MRY only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 277 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 5479

For a booking, OO 5479 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 13.4% 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.
