Historical statistics for September 2025 to August 2026, not live status. For today’s flights, check with PSA Airlines.
PSA on DFW to MOB lands a B−, about a point better than the national rate of 77.3%. About one flight in five arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by an hour and a half on average. That rests on 502 flights, with a median arrival 9 minutes early.
The US average over the same twelve months is 77.3%, so there is little to separate PSA on DFW to MOB from the country as a whole. The variation that matters here is internal: which carrier, and what time of day.

Book the morning departure. Flights leaving between 8am–11am arrive on time 84.8% of the time, against 71.6% for the overnight window. That is 13 points of difference for no extra money, and it comes from the same aircraft having had no earlier flight to fall behind on. The 8pm–5am window is the busiest, with 237 flights scheduled in it.

Delay causes
Why PSA runs late on this route
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 48% of the 8,561 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 48%Late-arriving aircraft
- 36%Carrier
- 8%Extreme weather
- 7%National Airspace System
- 0%Security
48% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 8,561 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 6 to one. The split is drawn from 8,561 reported delay minutes.
The largest share of delay minutes, 36%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. It accounts for 3,088 of the 8,561 delay minutes reported here.
Cancellations run at 4.18%, against 1.89% nationally. That is about one flight in 25 cancelled outright. A cancelled flight is invisible in every on-time figure on this page, so the punctuality numbers above describe only the flights that actually operated.
Connections and stage length
What a delay here costs
8.6% 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 an hour and a half, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 539 miles between these two airports put this in the middle of the US network, around two and a half to three hours of block time. That is enough cruise to absorb a ten-minute late pushback and not enough to absorb thirty.
The return leg runs 81.0% on time across 502 flights, within 3 points of this direction. The two legs are scored separately because they usually differ; on this city pair they happen not to.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 502 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 PSA on DFW to MOB
Put together: the delay figures matter less here than the 4.18% cancellation rate. A late arrival costs you an hour and a half; a cancelled flight costs you the day. Book the 8am–11am departure so there is still a schedule behind you if it goes wrong, and treat a same-day connection as optimistic. 479 completed flights over 12 months sit behind that.
