BUD to BBU questions
Is BUD–BBU running on time right now?
Smooth skies ahead. The departure side at BUD 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 BUD to BBU?
Great-circle distance is 620 km. With typical jet cruise speed plus taxi, climb and descent, expect roughly 74–83 min gate-to-gate on this route.
How often does BUD–BBU fly?
Wizz Air runs the route with about 6 flights a week (sun, mon, tue, thu, 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 BUD and arrival-side delay at BBU, 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.
