These figures cover 363 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 14 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.
Schedule
When OH 5193 flies
OH 5193 flies PIA to CLT without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 05:00, used on 152 of 363 flights, with 05:06 (41 flights) and 05:02 (37 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 05:00 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and OH 5193 runs level with that at 89.0%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

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, OH 5193 ranged from 84.8% on Sunday to 92.2% on Friday. With about 52 flights behind each day, a spread of 7 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.
Delay causes
Why OH 5193 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 76% of the 5,496 delay minutes carriers reported, and the remaining four split what is left. The split is by minutes rather than by flights, so a few very long delays count for as much as many short ones.
- 76%Carrier
- 12%National Airspace System
- 12%Late-arriving aircraft
- 1%Extreme weather
The largest share of delay minutes, 76%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 4,164 of the 5,496 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 5,496 delay minutes reported on OH 5193.
Cancellations run at 5.23%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about one flight in twenty 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 routes
What a delay on this flight costs
7.0% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last about 2.4 hours, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 607 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. It is also long enough that the aircraft usually flies three or four legs a day rather than six, which slows how fast delay compounds.
Every one of the 363 flights under OH 5193 in the data flew PIA to CLT. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 363 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 OH 5193
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on OH 5193: 5.23% of its 363 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs about 2.4 hours, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
