To clarify, the Dragon is scheduled to return in February. The Dragon launched back in September, and is currently docked to the ISS.
Why the delay then?
Crew rotations are usually 6 months. Starliner launched while 4 Dragon-launched astronauts were already on ISS. The next Dragon for a 6 month mission launched with 2 astronauts, leaving 2 seats for the Starliner crew to return on.
