These figures cover 250 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 18 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 YX 3560 flies
YX 3560 flies PIT to EWR without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 09:00, used on 103 of 250 flights, with 08:58 (36 flights) and 08:26 (32 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 09:00 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and YX 3560 runs 9 points better at 93.4%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year
YX 3560 quarter by quarter
YX 3560 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 97.8% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 87.6%, a swing of 10 points on roughly 83 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, YX 3560 ranged from 88.6% on Sunday to 100.0% on Wednesday. With about 36 flights behind each day, a spread of 11 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.
Delay causes
Why YX 3560 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 58% of the 767 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.
- 58%National Airspace System
- 25%Carrier
- 17%Late-arriving aircraft
58% 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 445 minutes out of 767, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 767 delay minutes reported on YX 3560.
Cancellations sit at 2.40% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 0.8% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.
The same number turns up on five other city pairs in the data, including EWR to DTW (30), BHM to ORD (19) and ORF to ORD (17), but none flew often enough under YX 3560 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to PIT to EWR only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 250 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 YX 3560
