Delay causes
Why YX 5832 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 50% of the 7,918 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 50%Late-arriving aircraft
- 29%Carrier
- 12%Extreme weather
- 9%National Airspace System
Extreme weather accounts for 12% 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 1.9 times the usual weather exposure. The split is drawn from 7,918 delay minutes reported on YX 5832.
Cancellations sit at 1.37% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.27%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
10.6% 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.
Every one of the 364 flights under YX 5832 in the data flew DTW to SDF. The number was not reused on any other city pair, which makes this a clean record of one route.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 364 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 5832
For a booking, read YX 5832 as 75.7% on time with 1.37% cancelled over 364 flights. Those are rates from the past twelve months, not a forecast for any particular day.
