Departure window

The best time of day to leave BOS in June

  • 8am–11am2,663 flights87.0%
  • 11am–2pm1,909 flights78.5%

  • 8pm–5am1,240 flights59.0%

Scale runs 50% to 95%.

The 8pm–5am window is where this operation falls apart: 59.0% on time, against 90.7% for the 5am–8am slot. By evening the aircraft flying these rotations have absorbed a full day of small delays and there is no slack left to recover in. The 8am–11am window is the busiest, with 2,663 flights scheduled in it.

Across the week, Tuesday is the strongest day at 81.9% on time and Sunday the weakest at 68.4%, a spread of 14 points.

Delay causes

What held BOS up in June

Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 44% of the 210,000 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.

  • Late-arriving aircraft
    44%
  • National Airspace System
    30%
  • Carrier
    25%
  • Extreme weather
    1%
  • Security
    0%

44% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 210,000 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 29 to one. The split is drawn from 210,168 reported delay minutes.

Cancellations sit at 1.77% against a national 1.65%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.30%.

9.5% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 9.7% nationally. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum for a connection here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.

What to do with this

Flying from BOS in June

For a June trip through BOS: expect 76.6% on time and 1.77% cancelled, going by June 2026. The 5am–8am window was the strongest part of the day.
