YX 5753 earns an A−. Nearly every flight arrives inside the 15-minute window the DOT uses to define an on-time arrival, which puts it 18 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. When something does go wrong the average delay runs about an hour. That rests on 283 flights, with a median arrival 13 minutes early.

These figures cover 283 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 13 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 5753 flies

YX 5753 flies PIT to LGA without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 06:05, used on 129 of 283 flights, with 06:00 (84 flights) and 06:03 (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 06:05 departure sits in the 5am–8am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 89.3%, and YX 5753 runs 6 points better at 95.3%. 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 5753 quarter by quarter

YX 5753 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 98.7% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 85.2%, a swing of 14 points on roughly 71 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 202578 flights98.7%
Oct–Dec 202568 flights95.5%
Jan–Mar 202661 flights85.2%
Apr–Jun 202676 flights98.7%

Scale runs 75% to 100%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.

By weekday, YX 5753 ranged from 91.7% on Tuesday to 100.0% on Sunday. With about 40 flights behind each day, a spread of 8 points is inside normal variation, so the day you fly is not worth changing for this flight.

Delay causes

Why YX 5753 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 71% of the 831 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
71%
National Airspace System
29%

The largest share of delay minutes, 71%, falls under carrier control: crew scheduling, maintenance, fuelling, baggage. Unlike weather, that is a management outcome, and it is the category where the gap between two carriers on the same schedule is genuinely earned. It accounts for 587 of the 831 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 831 delay minutes reported on YX 5753.

Cancellations run at 3.18%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about one flight in 30 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

Badly late arrivals are rare here: only 1.8% land an hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. Connections built on this flight are about as safe as US domestic connections get, though a cancelled flight still ignores every layover you give it.

The same number turns up on three other city pairs in the data, including CLT to LGA (3), LGA to CLT (3) and DCA to JFK (1), but none flew often enough under YX 5753 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. 283 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 5753

For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on YX 5753: 3.18% of its 283 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs about an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
