How FA801 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for FA801 across the CPT and JNB boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left a little late (~9 min) but landed about 21 min early. Not enough to call it.
The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how FA801 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
