How AI996 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AI996 across the DXB and DEL boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Usually lands on time. Based on 9 confirmed landings · 9/9 within 15 min of schedule. Pushes back late but makes up time in the air.
