YX5763

YX5763 arrived on time 58.5% of the time, against 74.0% for all DCA → LGA flights, so this departure is 15.5 percentage points worse than the route as a whole. Against Republic Airways’ own flights on this route it is 16.0 points worse.

YX5763’s scheduled departure has moved during the period FlyerIntel has on file: it typically left around 5:00 PM earlier on, and around 5:45 PM more recently — a 45-minute shift, not the few minutes of day-to-day rounding every published schedule carries. Confirm the current departure time before booking around an older listing.

Source: FlyerIntel analysis of US DOT BTS data · June 2024 – July 2026 · The one thing about this specific departure that ranks most extreme against every other published flight number, out of everything FlyerIntel checks — shown only when something clears a real statistical bar, not for every flight.

YX5763 has cancelled 7.59% of its scheduled departures (57 of 751), against 4.52% for all DCA → LGA flights — this specific departure cancels 3.1 percentage points more often than the route as a whole. Different flight numbers on the same route can carry different aircraft, crews and schedules, so this is a fact about YX5763 specifically, not about the route it flies.

Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for YX5763 on DCA → LGA. Only delays of 15 minutes or more are attributed.

When the aircraft came in 15 or more minutes late, YX5763 pushed back an average of 58 minutes late; when it came in on time or early, an average of 6 minutes late.

Each departure is matched to the flight the same aircraft flew into DCA just before it, using the tail number in the DOT file, 670 of 701 departures in all. A departure is left out when that flight is unknown, was cancelled or diverted, or the aircraft had sat for more than 12 hours. A flight the airline cancelled never left and is not in the count, and one flown by a substitute aircraft is matched to the aircraft that flew it, not to the one first planned.

On arrival at LGA, YX5763 spends 9.2 min taxiing from touchdown to the gate — ground time a connecting passenger sits through before they can even leave the aircraft, on top of however late the flight itself ran. That is 1.1 minutes longer than a typical LGA arrival (8.2 min).

Departure delay is averaged over every pushback and arrival delay over every completed arrival, so the two counts differ by the flights that never reached LGA. Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block rather than on top of it; the comparison is 36,996 departures from DCA scheduled in the clock hour YX5763 most often leaves in. Taxi-in is landing to gate, compared against every arrival FlyerIntel has on file at LGA (456,481 flights), not just YX5763’s own. More on taxi time.

YX5763 is scheduled out of DCA at 5:00 PM, in the 5 PM–6 PM bank. Departures from DCA in that hour arrive on time 66.6% of the time against 76.5% across the airport’s whole day — the slot alone is worth 9.9 points worse before anything about this particular flight is considered.

The two airport figures cover every departure from DCA to every destination, so they describe the slot rather than this journey — the like-for-like comparison against the route is above. Hours are scheduled local, and a number whose schedule moved between banks inside the period has no single hour and is not described here at all. Why the hour matters.

Because the same number has served different journeys, the statistics above describe only the route YX5763 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.

Every departure listed carries at least 600 operations, so the comparison is between figures that mean something. YX5763 is placed in the same ordering rather than left out of it; the rows around it are the most punctual departures on the route, not all of them, so this is a comparison and not a rank. Schedules change; confirm the departure still operates before booking around this.
