These figures cover 293 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 8.1% 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 2283 flies

B6 2283 flies BOS to RDU without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 14:35, used on 48 of 293 flights. 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 14:35 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and B6 2283 runs 8 points better at 80.7%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year

B6 2283 quarter by quarter

B6 2283 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 89.9% on time and its weakest Oct–Dec 2025 at 71.4%, a swing of 19 points on roughly 73 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.

Jan–Mar 202668 flights72.6%

By weekday, B6 2283 did best on Wednesday at 89.7% on time and worst on Thursday at 65.1%. Each day rests on about 42 flights, so a gap of 25 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why B6 2283 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 52% of the 3,766 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.

52% 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 3,766 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 23 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 3,766 delay minutes reported on B6 2283.

Cancellations run at 2.73%, against 1.81% nationally. That is roughly one flight in 40 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

8.1% 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 a little over an hour, which a normal layover absorbs.

The 612 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 293 flights under B6 2283 in the data flew BOS to RDU. 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. 293 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 2283

For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on B6 2283: 2.73% of its 293 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs a little over an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
