These figures cover 286 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 3 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.

Delay causes
Why B6 1002 runs late
Carrier accounts for 43% of the 4,437 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 43%Carrier
- 35%Late-arriving aircraft
- 20%National Airspace System
- 2%Extreme weather
- 0%Security
35% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 4,437 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 17 to one. The split is drawn from 4,437 delay minutes reported on B6 1002.
Cancellations run at 3.15%, against 1.89% 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
7.3% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last about an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 1,069 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.
Every one of the 286 flights under B6 1002 in the data flew FLL to JFK. 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. 286 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 B6 1002
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on B6 1002: 3.15% of its 286 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs about an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
