Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s YX 4577, 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 4577 sits in the middle of the pack with a C−. About seven flights in ten arrive on time by the DOT's definition, 6 points worse than the national rate of 77.6%. The late ones land an hour and a half behind schedule. That rests on 311 flights, with a median arrival 6 minutes early.
The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so YX 4577 runs 6 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 61 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 311 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 18.2% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.
Schedule
When YX 4577 flies
YX 4577 flies LGA to GSO without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 20:55, used on 46 of 311 flights, with 21:29 (38 flights) and 21:02 (32 flights) next. Carriers retime flights through the season, so the rates here blend slightly different positions in the aircraft's day.

Scale runs 0% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 20:55 departure sits in the 8pm–5am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 70.5%, and YX 4577 runs level with that at 71.5%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Across the year
YX 4577 quarter by quarter
YX 4577 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 78.3% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 63.8%, a swing of 15 points on roughly 78 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 202583 flights78.3%
- Oct–Dec 202575 flights63.8%
- Jan–Mar 202676 flights71.9%
- Apr–Jun 202677 flights72.2%
Scale runs 55% to 85%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, YX 4577 did best on Monday at 79.1% on time and worst on Sunday at 63.6%. Each day rests on about 44 flights, so a gap of 15 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why YX 4577 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 74% of the 6,518 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.
- 74%Late-arriving aircraft
- 11%Carrier
- 10%National Airspace System
- 5%Extreme weather
74% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. That is a cascade, and cascades start small and grow through the day. Across 6,518 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 14 to one. It is the strongest argument for booking the first departure of the morning, when the aircraft has been sitting at the gate overnight with nothing to inherit. The split is drawn from 6,518 delay minutes reported on YX 4577.
Cancellations run at 11.90%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about one flight in eight 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
For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 18.2% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
The same number turns up on three other city pairs in the data, including ORD to CMH (2), CMH to ORD (2) and ORF to ORD (1), but none flew often enough under YX 4577 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to LGA to GSO only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 311 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 4577
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on YX 4577: 11.90% of its 311 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.
