How CX289 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for CX289 across the HKG and FRA boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: left a little late (~9 min) but landed about 16 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how CX289 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
