Delay causes
Why YX 5694 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 3,570 reported delay minutes.
- 41%National Airspace System
- 31%Late-arriving aircraft
- 28%Carrier
- 0%Extreme weather
41% 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 1,472 minutes out of 3,570, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 3,570 delay minutes reported on YX 5694.
Cancellations run at 5.06%, 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
8.2% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last an hour and a half, which a normal layover absorbs.
The same number turns up on six other city pairs in the data, including LGA to PIT (246), JFK to RDU (12) and BNA to LGA (1), but none flew often enough under YX 5694 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to PIT to LGA only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 257 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 5694
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on YX 5694: 5.06% of its 257 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.
