However, due to overall flying patterns (including international) I remain on AAL rather than swtching to B6.
FWIW, the BOS-DCA flights appear to have (basically) the same flight time on AA and B6.

If the extra 15 minutes on AA really puts pressure on your ability to do business, I would suggest taking B6 north and AA south.
