B61318 route overview: JFK to BOS

B61318 distance and great-circle path

B61318 covers 300 km, or 186 miles. That makes it a short-haul flight, a single-aisle hop where turnaround time matters more than range. Of the 343 routes we track, it ranks 338 by distance.

Both ends of this route are in United States. It is 300 km of domestic flying north-east, from New York to Boston. New York and Boston keep the same clock, so the arrival time on the ticket is the flight time plus the departure time, with nothing to convert.

What we know about B61318

What flying JFK to BOS takes

This is a short hop, and the economics work differently: turnaround time dominates the economics; the aircraft may fly this sector four or five times a day. JetBlue Airways would normally roster a regional jet or a small narrowbody for it. In daylight the sun sits on the right (south-facing) side of the cabin for most of the crossing.

How we verified this

The origin and destination on this page are the ones we verified for callsign JBU1318 through adsbdb, not a schedule copied from elsewhere. We have logged it airborne on 23 days between 2026-09-20 and 2026-10-13. Timings are observations, not an official operational status: always confirm with the airline before travelling.

This page was published from our own tracking record rather than a third-party schedule feed, so it grows as we see the flight again. The seven-day log below is the raw version of the same evidence.

B61318 activity in the past 7 days

Our database contains 7 observations of B61318 across 7 UTC dates in this window, most recently 2026-10-13. Those records contain 7 distinct transponder addresses. The most frequently resolved route was JFK-BOS (7 records).

The median recorded visibility was 100 minutes. That is time inside receiver coverage, not airborne duration or an on-time-performance measurement.

How much CO2 does B61318 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Airbus A220-300, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown300 km
AircraftAirbus A220-300
Fuel burn rate2.85 kg per km
Fuel burned856 kg
CO2, whole flight2.7 tonnes
Seats, typical layout130
Passengers carried108 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger25 kg

Where that lands by cabin

The aircraft burns the same fuel whoever is aboard, so the cabins divide one total rather than each carrying their own. A seat's share is the floor it takes up, which is why an economy seat comes out below the 25 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy114 seats, 95 flown
20 kg CO2 per seat
Business16 seats, 13 flown
59 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, B61318 emits what 45 trees take back out of the air in a year. One economy seat on it accounts for about the same carbon dioxide as driving a petrol car 147 km, or 716 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at sectors of 926 km and 3,704 km, all longer than this route, so the closest is held flat and the real figure is likely a little higher. It counts carbon dioxide only, and the cabin split assumes the layout typical of this size of aircraft. Read the full method, sources and caveats, or put B61318 against another flight.
