These figures cover 274 flights between July 2025 and June 2026. Beyond the headline rate, 18.6% 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 592 flies
B6 592 flies TPA to BOS without a single fixed slot. Its most common scheduled departure was 11:46, used on 32 of 274 flights. 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 11:46 departure sits in the 11am–2pm window. Across every US flight scheduled in that window the on-time rate is 78.8%, and B6 592 runs 14 points worse at 64.4%. Midday slots inherit some of the morning's delays without yet carrying the full weight of the evening's.

By weekday, B6 592 did best on Wednesday at 75.0% on time and worst on Thursday at 53.7%. Each day rests on about 39 flights, so a gap of 21 points is worth noticing but could still narrow in another year.
Delay causes
Why B6 592 runs late
One category carries most of the weight here. National Airspace System accounts for 48% of the 6,671 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.
- 48%National Airspace System
- 39%Late-arriving aircraft
- 12%Carrier
- 1%Extreme weather
39% 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 6,671 reported delay minutes here, that single category outweighs weather by 35 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 6,671 delay minutes reported on B6 592.
Cancellations run at 3.65%, against 1.81% nationally. That is roughly one flight in 25 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. 18.6% 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 1,185 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.
The same number turns up on one other city pair in the data, including AUS to BOS (49), but none flew often enough under B6 592 to report a rate for. Carriers move flight numbers between routes, so the figures on this page apply to TPA to BOS only.
One caution: this is a thin sample. 274 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 592
For a booking, the cancellation rate is the figure to plan around on B6 592: 3.65% of its 274 scheduled flights did not operate. A late arrival costs a little over an hour, but a cancellation costs the day, so leave a later option open.
