ADD to DSE questions
Morning or evening flight on ADD–DSE?
Operators schedule morning departures around 07:05 from ADD. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the DSE delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.
How long is the flight from ADD to DSE?
Great-circle distance is 254 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 48–52 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does ADD–DSE fly?
Ethiopian Airlines runs the route with about 40 flights a week (daily). Since one carrier owns the route, a single disruption tends to ripple through the day.
What does the route health score measure?
A blend of departure-side delay at ADD and arrival-side delay at DSE, computed from rolling delay windows (refreshed every 40 minutes) with a daily-rollup fallback. Current MVFR, IFR, or LIFR endpoint weather caps the score when flight rules can limit throughput. Higher is healthier: 100 means operations are clean at both ends.
