Share of 268 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
Time lost at the gate mostly stays lost. Of 82 departures that left 15 minutes late or more, only 4 made it up before arrival. In the other direction, 26 flights left on time yet arrived 15 minutes late or more, so that delay built up after pushback: in the air, in a holding pattern or on the ground at SFO.

Delay causes
Why OO 6260 runs late
National Airspace System accounts for 53% of the 6,359 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 53%National Airspace System
- 26%Late-arriving aircraft
- 19%Carrier
- 1%Extreme weather
53% 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 3,400 minutes out of 6,359, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 6,359 delay minutes reported on OO 6260.
Cancellations are rare at 0.00%, below the national 1.89% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Almost no flights are called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
17.5% 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 two other city pairs in the data, including GRK to DFW (44) and LAX to SJC (2), but none flew often enough under OO 6260 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to LAX to SFO only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 269 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 6260
For a booking, OO 6260 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 17.5% 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.
