Delay & cancellation outlook for this flight
Early read, sample still buildingConditions at ICN and HNL are near their clear-air norm right now, so this reflects the route's recent baseline rather than a weather penalty. For this route and airline, under conditions like today's, over the last 90 days. This route's tracked sample is still thin — treat these as an early read, not a precise forecast.

How KE53 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for KE53 across the ICN and HNL boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Usually lands ~32 min early. Based on 3 confirmed landings · 3/3 within 15 min of schedule. Pushes back late but makes up time in the air.
