These figures cover 336 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 11 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 5834 flies

Delay causes

Why OO 5834 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 47% of the 1,591 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.

Carrier
47%
National Airspace System
34%
Extreme weather
10%
Late-arriving aircraft
10%

34% 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 537 minutes out of 1,591, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 1,591 delay minutes reported on OO 5834.

Cancellations are rare at 0.60%, 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

Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 2.4% 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.

Every one of the 336 flights under OO 5834 in the data flew ABQ to DEN. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 336 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 5834

For a booking, OO 5834 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 91.0% on time and 0.60% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
