B6 2324 earns a D, which is as low as this site's scale goes for a reason. Only 56.1% of flights arrive inside the 15-minute window, 21 points worse than the national rate of 77.6%. Late arrivals average a little over an hour. Treat any tight connection here as a coin flip. That rests on 307 flights, with a median arrival 8 minutes late.
The national on-time rate over the same period is 77.6%, so B6 2324 runs 21 points behind the country as a whole. Across a thousand flights that is about 215 extra late arrivals.

These figures cover 307 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 16.6% 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.

Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 15:45 departure sits in the 2pm–5pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 72.4%, and B6 2324 runs 16 points worse at 56.1%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

Across the year
B6 2324 quarter by quarter
B6 2324 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 69.3% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 46.6%, a swing of 23 points on roughly 77 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.

- Oct–Dec 202571 flights56.3%
- Jan–Mar 202677 flights46.6%

By weekday, B6 2324 did best on Tuesday at 66.7% on time and worst on Sunday at 44.0%. Each day rests on about 44 flights, so a gap of 23 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why B6 2324 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 45% of the 9,316 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.

- 33%Late-arriving aircraft
- 18%Carrier
- 5%Extreme weather
- 0%Security
45% of delay minutes are charged to the National Airspace System: air traffic volume, runway configuration, ground stops. No carrier can price its way out of that, which is why airport choice moves the number here more than carrier choice does. That is 4,150 minutes out of 9,316, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 9,316 delay minutes reported on B6 2324.
Cancellations sit at 1.30% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.65%.
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. 16.6% 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 759 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 307 flights under B6 2324 in the data flew MCO to DCA. 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. 307 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 2324
For a booking, B6 2324 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 16.6% 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.
