These figures cover 309 flights between September 2025 and August 2026. The median arrival is 6 minutes early, which is the part an average hides: most flights here are fine, and the on-time rate is decided by a tail of badly late ones. On-time means under 15 minutes late, the DOT's own threshold.

Why B6 430 runs late
Late-arriving aircraft accounts for 48% of the 3,418 delay minutes carriers reported here, and the remaining four split what is left.
- 48%Late-arriving aircraft
- 40%Carrier
- 12%National Airspace System
- 0%Security
- 0%Extreme weather
48% of delay minutes trace back to a late-arriving aircraft, meaning the plane was already behind before it got here. Across 3,418 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 48 to one. The split is drawn from 3,418 delay minutes reported on B6 430.
Cancellations sit at 2.27% against a national 1.89%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.00%.
Connections and routes
What a delay on this flight costs
6.6% of arrivals land an hour or more late, close to the national 8.3%, so a 60 to 75 minute layover is reasonable here while anything under 45 minutes is a bet. Most delays on this route last roughly 55 minutes, which a normal layover absorbs.
The 1,129 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.
Every one of the 309 flights under B6 430 in the data flew MCO to BQN. 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. 309 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.
