These figures cover 273 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. The median arrival is 12 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.
Schedule
When B6 448 flies
B6 448 flies LAS to JFK without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 10:10, used on 55 of 273 flights, with 07:00 (50 flights) and 09:58 (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 10:10 departure sits in the 8am–11am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 84.1%, and B6 448 runs level with that at 85.3%. 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 448 quarter by quarter

By weekday, B6 448 did best on Monday at 94.7% on time and worst on Wednesday at 75.6%. Each day rests on about 39 flights, so a gap of 19 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why B6 448 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 60% of the 3,138 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.
- 60%National Airspace System
- 21%Carrier
- 19%Late-arriving aircraft
60% 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 1,895 minutes out of 3,138, against a national NAS share of 21%. The split is drawn from 3,138 delay minutes reported on B6 448.
Cancellations run at 3.30%, against 1.81% nationally. That is about one flight in 30 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
5.4% 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 2,248 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 273 flights under B6 448 in the data flew LAS to JFK. 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. 273 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 448
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on B6 448: 3.30% of its 273 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs an hour and a half, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
