|---|---|---|
| 6 August 2026 | 3 hours 44 minutes | Carrier |

Delay causes
Why YX 5707 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 55% of the 4,632 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 55%Late-arriving aircraft
- 27%Carrier
- 18%National Airspace System
55% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 4,632 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 55 to one. The split is drawn from 4,632 delay minutes reported on YX 5707.
Cancellations run at 3.91%, against 1.89% nationally. That is about one flight in 25 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
12.6% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.3% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.
The 562 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.
The same number turns up on four other city pairs in the data, including BNA to DCA (110), CVG to BOS (21) and BOS to CVG (21), but none flew often enough under YX 5707 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to DCA to BNA only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 281 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 5707
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on YX 5707: 3.91% of its 281 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.
