Historical statistics for July 2025 to June 2026, not live status. For today’s YX 5694, 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 5694 earns an A. More than four flights in five arrive inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 9 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs a little over an hour. That rests on 250 flights, with a median arrival 14 minutes early.

Set against the rest of the country, YX 5694's record is 9 points better than the US average of 77.6%. That gap is worth roughly 93 fewer late arrivals for every thousand flights.

These figures cover 250 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 14 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 5694 flies

YX 5694 flies LGA to PIT without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:45, used on 64 of 250 flights, with 10:17 (31 flights) and 10:02 (30 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 10:45 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and YX 5694 runs 3 points better at 86.9%. 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 5694 quarter by quarter

YX 5694 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 92.8% on time and its weakest Apr–Jun 2026 at 82.7%, 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 5694 did best on Tuesday at 92.3% on time and worst on Sunday at 73.0%. Each day rests on about 36 flights, so a gap of 19 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why YX 5694 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 48% of the 2,317 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.

Carrier
48%
Late-arriving aircraft
38%
National Airspace System
14%

38% 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 2,317 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 38 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 2,317 delay minutes reported on YX 5694.

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

5.3% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last a little over an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.

The same number turns up on six other city pairs in the data, including PIT to LGA (249), JFK to RDU (12) and MEM 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 LGA to PIT 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 5694

For a booking, read YX 5694 as 86.9% on time with 2.40% cancelled over 250 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
