These figures cover 336 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 14 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.

Delay causes
Why OO 5834 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 1,509 reported delay minutes.
- 41%Carrier
- 32%National Airspace System
- 17%Late-arriving aircraft
- 10%Extreme weather
The largest share of delay minutes, 41%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. It accounts for 613 of the 1,509 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 1,509 delay minutes reported on OO 5834.
Cancellations are rare at 0.30%, 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
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 2.4% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% 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: 92.2% on time and 0.30% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
