Share of scheduled departures at each local time. Times used on fewer than one flight in ten are not listed.
A 17:38 departure sits in the 5pm–8pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 68.2%, and B6 2602 runs 4 points better at 72.3%. By that time of day most aircraft have flown several legs already, and whatever went wrong earlier is still in the schedule.

Across the year
B6 2602 quarter by quarter
B6 2602 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 79.5% on time and its weakest Jul–Sep 2025 at 66.3%, a swing of 13 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.
- Jul–Sep 202592 flights66.3%
- Oct–Dec 202592 flights67.0%
- Jan–Mar 202690 flights77.4%
- Apr–Jun 202685 flights79.5%
Scale runs 60% to 85%. Rows with fewer than 30 flights show a dash.
By weekday, B6 2602 did best on Friday at 86.3% on time and worst on Sunday at 65.3%. Each day rests on about 51 flights, so a gap of 21 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why B6 2602 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. Carrier accounts for 43% of the 10,000 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.
- 43%Carrier
- 42%Late-arriving aircraft
- 15%National Airspace System
- 1%Extreme weather
- 0%Security
42% 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 10,000 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 42 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 10,055 delay minutes reported on B6 2602.
Cancellations run at 2.51%, 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
For anyone connecting, the number to weigh is not the on-time rate but the tail behind it. 12.1% 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.
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 359 flights under B6 2602 in the data flew SJU to HPN. 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. 359 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 2602
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on B6 2602: 2.51% of its 359 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs close to two hours, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
