These figures cover 353 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 13.5% 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 460 flies

B6 460 flies FLL to BDL without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 20:10, used on 52 of 353 flights, with 18:25 (42 flights) and 20:50 (41 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 20:10 departure sits in the 8pm–5am window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 70.5%, and B6 460 runs 7 points worse at 63.4%. 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 460 quarter by quarter

B6 460 did not run the same all year. Its best quarter was Apr–Jun 2026 at 72.5% on time and its weakest Jan–Mar 2026 at 51.7%, a swing of 21 points on roughly 88 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 460 did best on Tuesday at 79.2% on time and worst on Sunday at 48.0%. Each day rests on about 50 flights, so a gap of 31 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.

Delay causes

Why B6 460 runs late

Carriers report a reason for every delay minute they cause, in five DOT categories. The split below is by minutes, not by number of flights, so a handful of very long weather delays weighs as much as many short ones. It covers 7,926 reported delay minutes.

Carrier
42%
Late-arriving aircraft
41%
National Airspace System
13%
Extreme weather
4%
Security
0%

41% 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 7,926 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 12 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 7,926 delay minutes reported on B6 460.

Cancellations sit at 1.42% against a national 1.81%, which is ordinary. Diversions add another 0.28%.

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. 13.5% 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 1,173 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 353 flights under B6 460 in the data flew FLL to BDL. 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. 353 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 460

For a booking, B6 460 is a flight to put a long connection behind. 13.5% 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.
