Delay causes
Why OH 5451 runs late
Carrier accounts for 46% of the 6,756 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 46%Carrier
- 37%Late-arriving aircraft
- 10%Extreme weather
- 6%National Airspace System
37% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 6,756 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 4 to one. The split is drawn from 6,756 delay minutes reported on OH 5451.
Cancellations run at 5.12%, against 1.89% 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
10.1% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
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.
The same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including DCA to STL (23), but none flew often enough under OH 5451 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to CLT to PIA only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 293 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 5451
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on OH 5451: 5.12% of its 293 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs an hour and a half, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
