These figures cover 360 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 8.3% 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 2601 flies

B6 2601 flies HPN to SJU without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 08:00, used on 248 of 360 flights, with 08:30 (60 flights) and 08:40 (37 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 08:00 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and B6 2601 runs 7 points worse at 76.9%. Early departures usually start with an aircraft that has not flown yet that day, which is most of why the window does well.

Across the year

B6 2601 quarter by quarter

B6 2601 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 86.0% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 68.7%, a swing of 17 points on roughly 90 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 2601 did best on Saturday at 86.0% on time and worst on Tuesday at 69.2%. Each day rests on about 51 flights, so a gap of 17 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why B6 2601 runs late

One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 57% of the 7,366 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.

57% 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 4,189 minutes out of 7,366, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 7,366 delay minutes reported on B6 2601.

Cancellations run at 2.50%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about 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

8.3% 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 an hour and a half, which a normal layover absorbs.

At 1,624 miles this is transcontinental flying, and long routes get a quiet structural advantage. Scheduled block time on a flight this length carries more padding in absolute minutes, so a twenty-minute late departure often still becomes an on-time arrival. Read the on-time rate here as slightly flattering next to a short-haul route with the same operational quality.

Every one of the 360 flights under B6 2601 in the data flew HPN to SJU. 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. 360 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 2601
