How WN980 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for WN980 across the BWI and TPA boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Usually lands on time. Based on 10 confirmed landings · 8/10 within 15 min of schedule. Pushes back late but makes up time in the air.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how WN980 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
