What stands out
How B665 compares to other flight numbers, not just to itself.
This flight's worst arrivals run unusually far past its typical one, a bigger gap than 97% of 11,788 comparable flight numbers.
A typical arrival is 5 min late, but the worst tenth run 114 minutes worse than that.

Why B665 runs late
Where US DOT attributed the delay minutes on this flight.
crew, maintenance, boarding and fueling, all within the carrier’s control
the inbound aircraft was late, so this flight started late
airspace and airport capacity, including weather-driven flow control
weather severe enough to stop this flight specifically
Share of the delay minutes US DOT attributed to each cause for B665 on JFK → ABQ. Only delays of 15 minutes or more are attributed.

Does a late aircraft delay this flight?
How often the plane that flies B665 comes in late, and what that does to the departure.
When the aircraft came in 15 or more minutes late, B665 pushed back an average of 66 minutes late; when it came in on time or early, an average of 14 minutes late.
Each departure is matched to the flight the same aircraft flew into JFK just before it, using the tail number in the DOT file, 404 of 610 departures in all. A departure is left out when that flight is unknown, was cancelled or diverted, or the aircraft had sat for more than 12 hours. A flight the airline cancelled never left and is not in the count, and one flown by a substitute aircraft is matched to the aircraft that flew it, not to the one first planned.
Against the network at the same turn length
| Share of departures | Inbound landed 15+ late | Left 15+ late after a late inbound | Left 15+ late after an on-time inbound |
|---|---|---|---|
| B665 | 33% | 72% | 26% |
| Network, same turn | 17% | 68% | 9% |
The schedule leaves a normal turn: enough time to clean and board if the aircraft is on time, little to spare if it is not.
The network row is every flight with a scheduled turn of 60 to 89 minutes. How often B665’s aircraft landed 15 or more minutes late is higher than the network’s and, once the aircraft was late, how often B665 left 15 or more minutes late is higher than the network’s.

From pushback to gate
When it leaves JFK late, does that still matter by the time it reaches ABQ?
B665 pushes back an average of 33.0 minutes late and reaches the gate at ABQ an average of 25.2 minutes late. The 7.8 minutes between those two figures are slack the published schedule already carries, which is why a late pushback on this flight does not reliably become a late arrival. It spends 36.1 minutes on the taxiways at JFK, 4.3 minutes longer than a typical JFK departure in the same hour.
On arrival at ABQ, B665 spends 7.2 min taxiing from touchdown to the gate — ground time a connecting passenger sits through before they can even leave the aircraft, on top of however late the flight itself ran. That is 1.2 minutes longer than a typical ABQ arrival (6.0 min).
Departure delay is averaged over every pushback and arrival delay over every completed arrival, so the two counts differ by the flights that never reached ABQ. Taxi-out is gate to wheels up and sits inside the scheduled block rather than on top of it; the comparison is 18,214 departures from JFK scheduled in the clock hour B665 most often leaves in. Taxi-in is landing to gate, compared against every arrival FlyerIntel has on file at ABQ (76,020 flights), not just B665’s own. More on taxi time.

The hour it leaves JFK
Part of any flight’s record belongs to the clock rather than to the flight. B665 has one departure time, so this is what that time is worth.
On-time arrival rate. 18,214 departures from JFK are scheduled in the 8 PM–9 PM hour over the period, against 351,635 across the whole day.
B665 is scheduled out of JFK at 8:00 PM, in the 8 PM–9 PM bank. Departures from JFK in that hour arrive on time 67.4% of the time against 77.0% across the airport’s whole day — the slot alone is worth 9.6 points worse before anything about this particular flight is considered.
The two airport figures cover every departure from JFK to every destination, so they describe the slot rather than this journey — the like-for-like comparison against the route is above. Hours are scheduled local, and a number whose schedule moved between banks inside the period has no single hour and is not described here at all. Why the hour matters.

Other routes B665 has flown
A flight number is a slot in a schedule, and carriers reassign it. These are the other city pairs this number served in the analysis period.
| Route | Operated | Flights | On time |
|---|---|---|---|
| BOS→RSW Boston to Fort Myers | December 15, 2023 – April 28, 2026 | 287 | 67.1% |
Because the same number has served different journeys, the statistics above describe only the route B665 currently operates. Blending them would produce an average of two different flights.
When it goes wrong
The average describes a usual day. This is the day that ruins a connection.
119 min late
against a median of 5 min late
B665 has an average that understates its risk: a typical arrival is 5 min late, but the worst tenth are 114 minutes worse than that. If the trip has something unmissable at the end of it, the median is the wrong number to plan against.

Data and methodology
Calculated by FlyerIntel from 624 records of B665 operating JFK → ABQ, published by the US DOT Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A flight counts as delayed when it arrives 15 or more minutes after schedule. Cancelled and diverted flights are excluded from the on-time rate and reported separately. Flight numbers are resolved as carrier plus number plus route, because the same number serves different routes over time.
