These figures cover 319 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 7 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.

The worst days
Worst days for UA 1095
The latest arrival of the period was on 24 November 2025, 11 hours 9 minutes behind schedule; most of its delay minutes were filed as a late-arriving aircraft. The same cause led on three of the five worst days.
| Date | Arrived late by | Largest filed cause |
|---|---|---|
| 24 November 2025 | 11 hours 9 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 28 March 2026 | 5 hours 6 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 13 August 2026 | 3 hours 53 minutes | Carrier |

Delay causes
Why UA 1095 runs late
Carrier accounts for 49% of the 4,365 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 49%Carrier
- 40%Late-arriving aircraft
- 12%National Airspace System
40% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 4,365 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 40 to one. The split is drawn from 4,365 delay minutes reported on UA 1095.
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
6.3% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last an hour and a half, which a normal layover absorbs.
At 2,418 miles this is transcontinental flying, and long routes get a quiet structural advantage. Scheduled block time on a flight this length carries more padding in absolute minutes, so a twenty-minute late departure often still becomes an on-time arrival. Read the on-time rate here as slightly flattering next to a short-haul route with the same operational quality.
The same number turns up on five other city pairs in the data, including SFO to RNO (95), SFO to CMH (81) and IAD to DEN (37), but none flew often enough under UA 1095 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to IAD to SFO only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 319 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 UA 1095
For a booking, UA 1095 has one of the better records a US domestic flight can show: 85.0% on time and 0.00% cancelled. That is a base rate, not a promise about any single day.
