Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s OO 5705, 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 5705 earns a B. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 7 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs close to two hours. That rests on 270 flights, with a median arrival 10 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, OO 5705's record is 7 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 70 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 270 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 10 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 5705 flies

OO 5705 flies SFO to PSP without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 19:00, used on 76 of 270 flights, with 18:32 (49 flights) and 18:40 (35 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 19:00 departure sits in the 5pm–8pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 68.2%, and OO 5705 runs 16 points better at 84.6%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Across the year

OO 5705 quarter by quarter

OO 5705 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 95.9% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 77.6%, a swing of 18 points on roughly 68 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 202549 flights95.9%
Oct–Dec 202549 flights77.6%
Jan–Mar 202687 flights87.1%
Apr–Jun 202685 flights79.5%

Scale runs 70% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, OO 5705 did best on Friday at 90.0% on time and worst on Thursday at 73.7%. Each day rests on about 39 flights, so a gap of 16 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why OO 5705 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 4,981 reported delay minutes.

National Airspace System
38%
Carrier
32%
Late-arriving aircraft
24%
Extreme weather
5%

38% 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 1,916 minutes out of 4,981, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 4,981 delay minutes reported on OO 5705.

Cancellations sit at 1.11% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.37%.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

6.0% 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 close to two hours, which a normal layover absorbs.

The same number turns up on three other city pairs in the data, including SFO to SBA (22), RAP to DEN (15) and GRR to ORD (1), but none flew often enough under OO 5705 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to SFO to PSP only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 270 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 5705
