These figures cover 352 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 18.6% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule. That is the number that wrecks a connection, and it is not visible in an on-time percentage alone.

Schedule

When B6 1371 flies

B6 1371 flies LGA to FLL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 13:30, used on 81 of 352 flights, with 13:29 (72 flights) and 18:30 (70 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 13:30 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and B6 1371 runs 18 points worse at 60.5%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

B6 1371 quarter by quarter

B6 1371 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Jul–Sep 2025 at 69.4% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 47.8%, a swing of 22 points on roughly 88 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 1371 did best on Saturday at 72.7% on time and worst on Sunday at 32.0%. Each day rests on about 50 flights, so a gap of 41 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why B6 1371 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 60% of the 13,000 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.

Extreme weather

60% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. That is a cascade, and cascades start small and grow through the day. Across 13,000 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 31 to one. It is the strongest argument for booking the first departure of the morning, when the aircraft has been sitting at the gate overnight with nothing to inherit. The split is drawn from 12,609 delay minutes reported on B6 1371.

Cancellations sit at 2.27% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.

Connections and routes

What a delay on this flight costs

For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 18.6% of arrivals land a full hour or more behind schedule, against 8.1% nationally. A 45-minute layover does not survive that, and no amount of walking quickly changes it. Ninety minutes is the honest minimum here, and two hours if the onward flight is on a separate ticket.

The 1,076 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 352 flights under B6 1371 in the data flew LGA to FLL. 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. 352 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 1371

For a booking, B6 1371 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 18.6% of its completed flights arrived an hour or more late, which a short layover will not absorb. If the onward flight is on a separate ticket, the risk sits with you.
