These figures cover 288 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 4 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.

Across the year
UA 695 quarter by quarter
UA 695 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 84.6% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2026 at 73.2%, a swing of 11 points on roughly 72 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.

By weekday, UA 695 did best on Saturday at 87.5% on time and worst on Monday at 69.0%. Each day rests on about 41 flights, so a gap of 19 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Share of 287 completed flights by arrival against schedule.
A late pushback is often recovered here: of 52 departures that left 15 minutes late or more, 16 still arrived on time. In the other direction, 23 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 SJU.
The worst days
Worst days for UA 695
The latest arrival of the period was on 27 July 2026, 3 hours 37 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 |
|---|---|---|
| 27 July 2026 | 3 hours 37 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 10 November 2025 | 2 hours 25 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
| 28 December 2025 | 2 hours 24 minutes | Carrier |
| 9 November 2025 | 2 hours 15 minutes | National Airspace System |
| 31 March 2026 | 2 hours 12 minutes | Late-arriving aircraft |
Delay causes
Why UA 695 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 3,036 reported delay minutes.
- 35%National Airspace System
- 33%Late-arriving aircraft
- 30%Carrier
- 3%Extreme weather
35% 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 1,050 minutes out of 3,036, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 3,036 delay minutes reported on UA 695.
Cancellations are rare at 0.35%, 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
5.6% 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 roughly 50 minutes, which a normal layover absorbs.
At 2,072 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 four other city pairs in the data, including ORD to RAP (54), IAH to ORD (31) and RIC to ORD (24), but none flew often enough under UA 695 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to ORD to SJU only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 288 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 695
For a booking, read UA 695 as 79.4% on time with 0.35% cancelled over 288 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
