Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 5534, 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 5534 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 253 flights, with a median arrival 2 minutes late.
The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so OO 5534 runs 13 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 125 extra late arrivals.

Across the year
OO 5534 quarter by 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.

Delay causes
Why OO 5534 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 59% of the 6,131 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.
- 59%National Airspace System
- 21%Late-arriving aircraft
- 18%Carrier
- 1%Extreme weather
59% 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 3,637 minutes out of 6,131, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 6,131 delay minutes reported on OO 5534.
Cancellations sit at 1.58% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
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. 16.1% 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 four other city pairs in the data, including ORD to ALB (22), GRR to ORD (10) and ORD to OMA (10), but none flew often enough under OO 5534 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to RDM to SFO only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 253 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 5534
For a booking, OO 5534 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 16.1% 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.
