Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s YX 3562, check with Republic Airways. Republic Airways flies under contract for larger airlines, so a ticket for this flight may show a different airline code and number.
YX 3562 lands a B−, 4 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in six arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by about an hour on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 279 flights, with a median arrival 13 minutes early.
Set against the rest of the country, YX 3562's record is 4 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 43 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 279 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 13 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 3562 flies
YX 3562 flies EWR to MKE without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 16:15, used on 71 of 279 flights, with 15:17 (40 flights) and 15:55 (34 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 16:15 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and YX 3562 runs 10 points better at 81.9%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.
Against the route
YX 3562 next to EWR to MKE

Across the year
YX 3562 quarter by quarter
YX 3562 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 85.5% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 72.5%, a swing of 13 points on roughly 70 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.
- Jul–Sep 202540 flights72.5%
- Oct–Dec 202589 flights81.5%
- Jan–Mar 202665 flights83.6%
- Apr–Jun 202685 flights85.5%
Scale runs 65% to 90%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, YX 3562 ranged from 78.0% on Friday to 87.2% on Sunday. With about 40 flights behind each day, a spread of 9 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.
Delay causes
Why YX 3562 runs late
Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 2,688 reported delay minutes.
- 35%Extreme weather
- 26%National Airspace System
- 24%Late-arriving aircraft
- 15%Carrier
Extreme weather accounts for 35% of delay minutes, well above the single-digit share typical across the system. Weather delays are lumpy: they arrive as whole bad days rather than as a steady drag, so the quarterly figures above are the more useful view of the risk. The national share is 6%, so this operation carries roughly 5.6 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 2,688 delay minutes reported on YX 3562.
Cancellations run at 4.66%, 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
Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 3.0% 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 725 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.
The same number turns up on five other city pairs in the data, including IAD to PIT (31), ORD to IND (21) and JAX to EWR (5), but none flew often enough under YX 3562 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to EWR to MKE only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 279 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 3562
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on YX 3562: 4.66% of its 279 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs about an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
