Does a late aircraft delay this flight?
How often the plane that flies OO4119 comes in late, and what that does to the departure.
The aircraft flying OO4119 came in 15 or more minutes late on 6% of the departures where its previous flight is known. There are not enough departures in both groups to say how the flight left after a late one and after an on-time one.
Each departure is matched to the flight the same aircraft flew into LAX just before it, using the tail number in the DOT file, 820 of 901 departures in all. A departure is left out when that flight is unknown, was cancelled or diverted, or the aircraft had sat for more than 12 hours. A flight the airline cancelled never left and is not in the count, and one flown by a substitute aircraft is matched to the aircraft that flew it, not to the one first planned.
Against the network at the same turn length
| Share of departures | Inbound landed 15+ late |
|---|---|
| OO4119 | 6% |
| Network, same turn | 18% |
The schedule leaves a normal turn: enough time to clean and board if the aircraft is on time, little to spare if it is not.
The network row is every flight with a scheduled turn of 45 to 59 minutes. How often OO4119’s aircraft landed 15 or more minutes late is lower than the network’s. There are not enough departures in both groups to compare how it left.

From pushback to gate
When it leaves LAX late, does that still matter by the time it reaches PHX?
On arrival at PHX, OO4119 spends 5.8 min taxiing from touchdown to the gate — ground time a connecting passenger sits through before they can even leave the aircraft, on top of however late the flight itself ran. That is 1.7 minutes shorter than a typical PHX arrival (7.5 min).
Departure delay is averaged over every pushback and arrival delay over every completed arrival, so the two counts differ by the flights that never reached PHX. Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block rather than on top of it; the comparison is 36,629 departures from LAX scheduled in the clock hour OO4119 most often leaves in. Taxi-in is landing to gate, compared against every arrival FlyerIntel has on file at PHX (598,496 flights), not just OO4119’s own. More on taxi time.

The hour it leaves LAX
Part of any flight’s record belongs to the clock rather than to the flight. OO4119 has one departure time, so this is what that time is worth.
On-time arrival rate. 36,629 departures from LAX are scheduled in the 7 AM–8 AM hour over the period, against 595,153 across the whole day.
OO4119 is scheduled out of LAX at 7:55 AM, in the 7 AM–8 AM bank. Departures from LAX in that hour arrive on time 89.0% of the time against 81.4% across the airport’s whole day — the slot alone is worth 7.6 points better before anything about this particular flight is considered.
The two airport figures cover every departure from LAX to every destination, so they describe the slot rather than this journey — the like-for-like comparison against the route is above. Hours are scheduled local, and a number whose schedule moved between banks inside the period has no single hour and is not described here at all. Why the hour matters.

By day of week
Does OO4119 run worse on particular days?
Wednesday is historically the most reliable day and Friday the least, a gap of 11.8 percentage points.

Because the same number has served different journeys, the statistics above describe only the route OO4119 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.

Every departure listed carries at least 600 operations, so the comparison is between figures that mean something. OO4119 is placed in the same ordering rather than left out of it; the rows around it are the most punctual departures on the route, not all of them, so this is a comparison and not a rank. Schedules change; confirm the departure still operates before booking around this.
Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 908 records of OO4119 operating LAX → PHX, published by the US DOT Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A flight counts as delayed when it arrives 15 or more minutes after schedule. Cancelled and diverted flights are excluded from the on-time rate and reported separately. Flight numbers are resolved as carrier plus number plus route, because the same number serves different routes over time.
