B6 1054 lands a B+, 4 points better than the national rate of 77.6%. About one flight in five arrives 15 minutes late or worse, and those flights are late by about an hour on average. That is a workable record, not a spotless one. That rests on 264 flights, with a median arrival 7 minutes early.

These figures cover 264 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 7 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 B6 1054 flies

B6 1054 flies PBI to JFK without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 11:14, used on 53 of 264 flights, with 06:00 (46 flights) and 10:48 (31 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 11:14 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and B6 1054 runs 2 points better at 81.2%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

B6 1054 quarter by quarter

B6 1054 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Oct–Dec 2025 at 92.0% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 70.7%, a swing of 21 points on roughly 66 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.

By weekday, B6 1054 did best on Saturday at 87.2% on time and worst on Thursday at 74.4%. Each day rests on about 38 flights, so a gap of 13 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why B6 1054 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 51% of the 2,848 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
51%
National Airspace System
29%
Late-arriving aircraft
19%
Extreme weather
2%

The largest share of delay minutes, 51%, 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 1,457 of the 2,848 delay minutes reported here. The split is drawn from 2,848 delay minutes reported on B6 1054.

Cancellations are rare at 0.76%, below the national 1.81% and low enough to earn the plus on the grade. Roughly one flight in 100 is called off; the risk here is arriving late, not not arriving.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

6.1% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.1%. That is the figure that decides a connection, and it says 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 1,028 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. It is also long enough that the aircraft usually flies three or four legs a day rather than six, which slows how fast delay compounds.

Every one of the 264 flights under B6 1054 in the data flew PBI 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. 264 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.
