BNE to LRE questions

Is BNE–LRE running on time right now?

Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at BNE is the weaker end, route health score 84/100. The airports section above carries the live status and delay window at both ends.

How long is the flight from BNE to LRE?

Great-circle distance is 990 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 100–115 min gate-to-gate on this route.

How often does BNE–LRE fly?

Qantas Airways runs the route with about 5 flights a week (sun, mon, tue, fri, sat). 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 BNE and arrival-side delay at LRE, 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.
