Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s YX 4722, 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 4722 draws a D−. Roughly one flight in three arrives at least 15 minutes late, and the typical late arrival is a little over an hour behind schedule. Build slack into anything you connect to. That rests on 304 flights, with a median arrival 2 minutes early.

The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so YX 4722 runs 14 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 145 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 304 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 16.4% 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 4722 flies

YX 4722 flies LGA to CLE without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 20:59, used on 35 of 304 flights, with 21:00 (33 flights) and 20:58 (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 20:59 departure sits in the 8pm–5am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 70.5%, and YX 4722 runs 7 points worse at 63.1%. 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 4722 quarter by quarter

YX 4722 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 72.3% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 54.1%, a swing of 18 points on roughly 76 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 202579 flights72.3%
Oct–Dec 202568 flights54.1%
Jan–Mar 202673 flights58.5%
Apr–Jun 202684 flights66.2%

Scale runs 45% to 80%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, YX 4722 did best on Tuesday at 73.3% on time and worst on Sunday at 46.5%. Each day rests on about 43 flights, so a gap of 27 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why YX 4722 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 62% of the 7,264 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.

Late-arriving aircraft
62%
National Airspace System
14%
Extreme weather
13%
Carrier
11%

Extreme weather accounts for 13% 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 2.1 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 7,264 delay minutes reported on YX 4722.

Cancellations run at 11.84%, 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. 16.4% 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 one other city pair in the data, including RDU to BNA (17), but none flew often enough under YX 4722 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to LGA to CLE only.

One caution: this is a thin sample. 304 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 4722

For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on YX 4722: 11.84% of its 304 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs a little over an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
